EP Review: The Month Of May – Jackie Moonbather

As spring breaks out, multi-instrumentalist JACKIE MOONBATHER brings in a host of blossoming melodies through his ten track EP appropriately titled ‘The Month of May’.

The EP introduces a hazy glaze which washes over the arrangements fused with jazz, neo soul and old school soul possessing a slight rare groove vibe. Although the featured falsetto – reminiscent of the 70s – took centre stage in most productions, the occasional flash of the near baritone vocals were the star of the show as it adds a unique dimension to Moonbather’s laid-back trademark.

Lovers of neo soul (raphael saadiq style) and jazz/soul legends (perhaps Miles Davis and John Coltrane) will find ‘The Month of May’ a delight; listen to the EP below:

Song Premiere: Dahlia – Billow Cloud

Billy Lash – aka – BILLOW CLOUD premieres his infectiously hazy springtime single, ‘Dahlia’, released today across all download sites. The dream-pop melody-maker is all geared up for a release show of the single on the 19th of May at the Cavendish Arms in Stockwell, London.

Produced by Guy Fixsen (Pixies, My Bloody Valentine, Wyldest), ‘Dahlia’ is described as ‘the soundtrack to a belated spring: when the scales of winter have fallen from your eyes and the excitement of the new season brings a fresh perspective.’

‘Dahlia’ follows the South Londoner’s debut single ‘Smokestack City’, which received airplay on Amazing Radio where DJ Shell Zenner called it ‘a gorgeous, dreamy number’.
