Velvet & Stone – High Tide
Velvet & Stone - High Tide
Release Date: 24th July 2018
Devon combo Velvet & Stone
aren’t resting on the laurels of creating heartstring tugging modern folk, oh
no, they’re only giving 100% of the proceeds of this single to Cancer Research
UK. The thing is, once you make that connection and listen to the emotive
lyrics of ‘High Tide’ laid out on top of the atmospheric, organic music it’s
nigh on impossible to hold back the emotions. The undulating rippled guitar notes
have a Brother & Bones feel to them but the vocals are more ethereal as
Lara Snowdon breathily sings “There’s trouble in the blood of you and me, the
storm reveals the bones on the beach. But how cruel a high tide to take your
breath away, I’ll miss you in the cold light of day” and a lump appears in the
throat of everyone listening. Whether you’ve lost someone to cancer of just
like excellent folk music with a driving heart, you need this song in your life
so that someone else can keep cancer out of theirs.
