Jenny Wilson
Let my shoes lead me forward
Rabid Records
As you may or may not know, Jenny Wilson is the first signing to The Knife's record label. Although a bit obvious, this doesn't sound too different from The Knife. This is no bad thing. It has more a pop sheen and slightly less screechy vocals, which has always been my main criticism of The Knife. Jenny Wilson deserves her own attention, and with a bit of luck may even eclipse the success of The Knife overseas. As her records have more instrumentation than The Knife I imagine that live, she truly shines.
