Nadine Khouri – To Sleep
Nadine Khouri - To Sleep
Release Date: Out Now
British-Lebanese artist has a
relatively unique list of influences on her Facebook page including
Sparklehorse, Low, Leonard Cohen, Stina Nordenstam and Tom Brosseau. Then you
listen to ‘To Sleep’ and it all fits. The nearly one minute long acoustic intro
is purposefully and deliberately slow before the dusky vocals of Khouri join in
for the kind of slow dance that should only be danced in black and white. A laconic
violin and a real sense of Parisian loss makes this a particularly sombre and
melancholy tune which is hard to avoid and, frankly, why would you want to?
