#57 Sorcha Richardson - Petrol Station

Lyrically driven and electronically sensual, New York-based, Irish Sorcha Richardson's latest single 'Petrol Station' is direct, bare and incredible. 

'Petrol Station' and its B-side 'With My Friends' are out now and she has several Summer shows planned across the USA.

Sorcha Richardson's natural tone and beautiful undulating melody are only rivalled by the racing lyrics. Even the chorus, although certainly catchy and summarising, is almost difficult to keep up with as her mind and mouth move faster than our ears. The song structure is an amazing element; as though it's only there to serve whatever anecdotal lyric is relevant to Richardson next, rather than to give the song a foundation. 'Petrol Station' has to be listened to more than once just to feel that you've actually caught it all.

The synth pads, tuned percussion and minimal production aren't new to us listeners, but the electronic focus is certainly newer for Richardson. We're hooked.

 

STALKER RESOURCES:

NO ONE CARES WHAT YOU THINK, BUT LEAVE A COMMENT ANYWAY

If Sabbath is God, then does that make Fuzz Jesus? Duncan Clark works it out with multi-instrumentalist Charles Moothart; the bad penny of every psych garage band you already love.

A band that started as a joke and supported Ty Segal off just four singles; Duncan Clark finds out which members of the un-pigeonhole-able Los Bitchos would bang Travis Barker.

Ghost Town Remedy provide an unashamedly guilt-free, riff-filled, blissful tonic to the eternal drudge of 2020.
