MARLODY:
Dominated by her extraordinary keyboard playing, Marlody’s songs are illuminated - and sometimes made sinister - by occasional bursts of programmed percussion, submarine bass and distant, chiming digital bells. These are deep, darkly beautiful pop songs.
The infectiousness and daring of some of the vocal melodies might remind you of Kate Bush, the intimacy might remind you of Cate Le Bon, the stabs of anger and pain might remind you of Liz Phair. The keyboard is sometimes as smooth as Fleetwood Mac; other times it’s as raucous and distorted as Quasi. The harmonies are from another place again – you could imagine hearing them in an Unthanks recording.
RACHEL LOWRIE
Medway-based singer songwriter Rachel Lowrie is fascinated by local stories and folk history which she translates into musical interludes, her rich, smoky, compelling vocals over intricate ukulele parts. Whether it is the Lion Queen or the river that gave the towns it’s name and purpose, you can expect captivating storytelling about landmarks and people that feel familiar wherever you are from.
