MP3: Anna Leong - Frightened eyes
Coming up on Saturday at Debaser Malmö: It's a Trap! Clubnight featuring Thomas Denver Jonsson and Anna Leong! Of those two fine acts, Umeå's Anna Leong is far more underrated so I'm posting a track for you today off their latest album "Terrorarium". The band usually excels in northern melancholy pop mixed with a touch of twang, but "Frightened eyes" shows their range by mixing in a bit of blue-eyed R&B ala The Faces. Jonas Bergsten doesn't have the gravel tone of Rod Stewart, but he does have a nice falsetto and he employs it well, especially on the chorus. And dig that bassline! That's what makes the song more than anything. So see you on Saturday, right? Actually, I'll be in Phoenix, Arizona experiencing 105°F/40°C weather, so live it up for me in my absence.
