Penny Bridges – Blue
Penny Bridges - Blue |
This is the second single I’ve
had the pleasure of reviewing from Wolverhampton lass Penny Bridges and I have
to say that this one has some beautiful cover art – I do like a nice piece of
cover art. ‘Blue’, for that is the name of this single, opens with an optimistic
acoustic strum and then Bridges’ husky, dusky, elfin vocal joins in with a
gentle, urging beat and suddenly the song is transformed. The vocal style of
Bridges is utterly encapsulating and delicate in a way that Nina Persson or
Joanna Newsom have done so well with and it is so beautiful it makes the world
around you stop for just a moment. Throw in some Cello and a sense of hope and
you’ll get a feel for how this song progresses or evolves. Gorgeous stuff for a
crisp Autumn morning as the mist rises of the fields and the animals have their
morning stretch.
