DREAM WIFE – ” Fire ” EP

Dream Wife serve up a perfect slice of jangly pop punk with their new E.P. “Fire”.

This is the all female trio’s fourth release, following EP01 and the two singles, “F.U.U.” and “Somebody“. Amongst other things, the title track explores the power of a true connection between two people “Do you remember last night there was a fire? We danced and we screamed and we held each other tight.” It is peppered with their distinctive guitar sound and a chorus as catchy as anything you’ll hear this year.

Dream Wife is jangly pop punk at it’s very best and “Fire” is most likely to see the band increase their ever-growing following. Don’t be surprised if this crosses over into the mainstream with some serious radio play.

The second track is a re-release of their “Somebody” single – well worth it’s inclusion both lyrically and musically to get the song in front of the newer fans they will no doubt be welcoming on the back of “Fire”. This assault on objectification … “ I am not my body, I am somebody” is again, wrapped up in a fantastically catchy tune but with less aggressive guitar work. This offers an interestingly more mellow sound, contrasting with the subject matter.

It’s well worth exploring some of the live videos on You Tube, where I think they sound even better and the more aggressive guitar work on “Fire” comes to the fore on a number of tracks.

The E.P. is available for pre-order now, “Fire” and “Somebody” available for immediate download, with the remaining tracks, all remixes of “Fire”, available on the official release date of 29th September. Catch them October 15th at The Cookie Leicester, United Kingdom

LOWLY – ” Fire “

Bella Union is very pleased to welcome Danish-quintet Lowly to their roster of excellent artists.

Their new EP ’Sink Way Into Me’ will be released on limited edition vinyl and digitally on Friday 30th October, featuring the new single ‘Fire’, which you can listem too here. Lowly appeared out of nowhere in April 2014 with the release of the bewitching ‘Daydreamers’ The sound, already so rich and full, was like being put under a magical spell.

Initially brought together- in hindsight I’d suggest by a visionary alchemist-purely to fulfil part of a short music project at the school they all attended, Nanna, Thomas, Steffen, Kasper and Soffie immediately found the chemistry so many musicians search years to find.

The individual influences of each, so different it seemed to begin with, truly give Lowly that unique sound, one that has been developing over the course of the last year. Recent shows and festivals have been received ecstatically and we were lucky enough to witness one of those performances at Spot Festival earlier this year. Simon Raymonde commented that simply, Lowly are one of the best young bands i have seen live in a long time. The music is at times intricate yet deep and sensual, the fascinating rhythms of drummer Steffen a perfect counterpoint to the gorgeous melodies of Soffie and Nanna. The overall effect of this in tandem with the liquid bass and keyboard lines creates a set that has you on the verge of crying and dancing all at the same time. There isn’t a band out there today like them, which is thrilling. To make music that is both emotional and influential at this early stage, shows that Lowly a band of limitless possibilities.

LOWLY will be visiting these shores in November to play a handful of shows.

You say you don’t like it, but I know you’re a liar/ ’Cause when we listen to this cover of the Bruce Springsteen song “Fire”  by Anna Calvi… fire the Calvi’s cover of the 1977 Boss track is the B-side to her new “Suddenly” 7-inch; “Suddenly” is also the first song on “One Breath”, her recent sophomore effort for Domino Reords.
