Eve Simpson is taking the ‘new year, new me’ motto to the next level. Admirably wiping her back catalogue for a fresh start, the singer-songwriter’s new track shows a rich maturity to her work. I Can See A Face speaks of a longing for escapism, from what we don’t know, but it seems as though Simpson is breaking free.
With a beautifully melodic tone, and vocals which are sad and humbling, her silky notes lace together a wonderful and well-produced folky track. The vocals reign throughout, delicate and layered to harmonised perfection, to create a loving atmosphere which leaves the listener feeling full. I Can See A Face heralds a mature and refreshing new start for the local artist, which I for one will be looking forward to seeing develop.
