There are some immense singles around just now. Here are 3:
A solid contender for Single of the Year So Far. It's been out for a couple of months but I just broke my 'no vinyl from the US due to prohibitive postal rates' rule to get it so it's current for me. Beth Arzy from Sarah Records group Aberdeen is a member; I loved them, too. That guitar line is a dream and a half and the vocals, well, they're Belgian chocolate sprinkles.
> Hollie Cook "Looking For Real Love" (Mr Bongo)
Now that the good weather feels comfortable enough to hang around for a bit in Scotland, Hollie's lover's rock makes even more sense. Why this isn't blasting out from radios and car stereos and mobile phones up and down the land is a mystery. Hollie's under-played singing style serves her well making her voice as welcome as a Magnum on a hot day. Go on...treat yourself to one of the 100 copies on pretty green vinyl!
> Theo Parrish "Footwork" (Sound Sculpture)
Addictive. Not overly banging or attention-seeking, just addictive.
