Two new releases on the Wee Pop label to write about.First up is the Photo EP by The Darlings who are an indie pop band with plenty of alt-country influences. Their original songs are lovely, cute and in the case of Emily pretty funny. I just hope she isn't listening. They finish with a pretty good ukulele driven cover of AC/DC's You Shook Me All Night Long. Shake yourself now Angus!
Sticking with the Australian theme is the Matches EP by Melbourne's The Motifs which crams six songs in under ten minutes. This is dreampop at it's loveliest and the size of the songs matches the 3" CDs!. Yours and Mine is my favourite track as it sounds like the theme to Candlewick Green but in truth all the songs are delightful as each other.The Darlings - Emily
The Motifs - Tell Me More
Buy both from here.
I got The Motifs EP a few days back and it's lovely! For A Clear Day is my favourite track at the moment.
