TRACK REVIEW: Louise Mountain – Sunbeams

Sunbeams is book-ended with ethereal vocals which scoop the listener up for a harmonious, melancholic and introspective journey before dropping them off gently, feeling pleasantly warmed up. Fans of First Aid Kit will soak up the approach of Louise Mountain who manages to layer a simple acoustic bed, complimentary percussion and a beautiful voice whilst resisting the urge to sing in a mock American accent which helps Sunbeams to remain authentic throughout. Building on the success of her first single Reminds me of you, if this single is a sign of how brightly Louise will shine over the next few years then you may want to stock up on the factor 50 now.
