Gitta De Ridder – Till The Day That I Die
Gitta De Ridder - Till The Day That I Die |
Release Date: Out Now
I’ve been looking for protest
music a lot this year, songs that speak of anger and injustice. Sometimes,
though, you need to soothe your soul and calm the storm inside so it’s with delight
that Dutch songstress Gitta De Ridder popped up in my inbox. De Ridder is a
firm favourite at LWM and new single ‘Till the Day That I Die’ is a
reassuringly smooth, slick and delicate piece of acoustic atmospheric mood
music. The song builds on a picked riff to include a sprinkling of xylophone
and warm strings while De Ridder’s voice dances that line between confidence
and crumbling completely with the emotion of the lyrics. This exists in the same
spectrum of music and feel as Laura Marling and David Kitt which is no bad
place to live and there’s an utterly compelling video to accompany this as well
which is just dandy.
