Pip Hall – Devil You Don’t (My Little Empire Records)
Pip Hall - Devil You Don't |
Release Date: Out Now
Kids, eh? Hanging around on their
own, absorbed in their smart phones and disengaged with the world. Terrible.
Except that’s not true, is it? There is a constant flow of talent young
musicians coming my way at the moment and the latest is Pip Hall, an extremely
hotly tipped 16-year-old from Preston. New single ‘Devil You Don’t’ is a slow
burner to begin with as a low synth rumble creeps in from the horizon before
Hall’s soft, smoky vocals drift in breathily a beat kicks in. We’re in Lady Hawke
meets Kimbra meets Lorde meets Seaker territory here but with some scuzzy
guitars thrown in and the kind of energy that would get you out of bed at
sunrise with a determined smile. There’s a maturity far beyond her meagre years
here and the kind of potential that gets a lot of people very excited and for
good reason. More in 2017 for sure, assuming she’s got her GCSEs sorted.
