Review:
Jazz/soul/funk band Nick Pride & The Pimptones have a great rep as both a live band and as writers of effortlessly catchy nu-soul tunes. Teaming up with singer Zoe Gilby for this latest single, the Newcastle band evoke bossa nova with the rhythms whilst keeping the instrumentation strictly bluesy and funky. With Gilby able to vocalise perfectly along with the rich guitar solos, the lovelorn theme of the song is given a punchy and jazzy feel thanks to some rasping brass accompaniment.
