LITTLE SCOUT – ARE YOU LIFE
Little Scout mixes earthy instruments with the airy voices of Melissa Tickle and Laura Kovic. Their new album Are You Life’s title track starts off with urgently banging drums, light voices leaking in as it gradually builds to take form.
This four-piece Brisbane band have a powerful indie sound, folding the elements into their songs, reminiscent of something between Josh Pyke and Melody’s Echo Chamber.
Slowly dropping to the intimacy of Don’t Teach Me To Sing, Are You Life funnels into a heartfelt finish that will move anyone who wants their voice to be heard. (SP)
