Seth Lumsden to release debut ‘Who You Tryin’ To Kid?’ EP in June | Music News

Posted on by

Scottish singer-songwriter Seth Lumsden is to release his debut 6 song EP, Who You Tryin’ To Kid?, as a digital-only download on 1st June. The troubadour, who lives in a cottage in the Loch Lomond & The Trossachs Country Park, has been earning rave reviews north of the border and is cut from the same cloth as such broken-hearted singer-songwriters like Bright Eyes, Tim Buckley, Nick Drake and Elliott Smith.

The recording was self-produced in Seth’s bedroom over the past year and features a cover of Elliott Smith’s “Between The Bars” as well as five other original tracks.

The ‘Who You Tryin’ To Kid?’ EP is available here from 1st June

 

Es Muss Sein – Es Muss Sein EP | Music Review

Posted on by

Es Muss Sein. Remember the name. It means “it must be in German” and is the nom de guerre of Poppy Wilson, a beautifully soulful little singer-song writer from ever-so-cool Kent.

This, her debut EP, deals in contrasting shades – light and dark, loud and quiet and a sadness that isn’t without hope. In fact it’s the hope she wants you to remember. Nobody does though do they? The music is built around her soulful voice and often minimalist approach to guitar playing. It’s beautiful. It’s genius. Think early Cat Power or the long lost child of Elliott Smith. Go and listen. In years to come you’ll be able to tell your friends that you heard her first.

 

Ess Muss Sein EP is released on 1st May 2012
