Music of the day

Earthbound by Sophie Barker

I recently bought Earthbound by Sophie Barker. It was a bit of an impulse as I can't really remember where I had seen the album cover before, although I was certain that I'd been to the website before.

Anyway it is good, there is a certain hint of the Cocteau Twins about it, which turns out to be not surprising as Robin Guthrie from the Cocteau's is one of the collaborators on the album.

She has written songs for Zero 7 before, a band I hadn't heard of who seem to be frequently described as being like the French group Air.
