Cortney Tidwell : Boys



Cortney Tidwell's follow up to the brilliant 'Don't Let Stars Keep Us Tangled Up' ups the electronics that subtly enhanced her debut with standout track 'Watussi' signaling the intent. Reminiscent in part of the highly regarded remix of the previous LP's title track by Ewan Pearson, kicks and claps crack boldly around her ethereal voice, far removed from her Nashville roots. Its quite the standout and the bulk of the album is more recognisable with the drone-folk of 'Oslo' and country feedback 'Being Crosby', although 'Bad News' injects a further touch of electro drama. A fine and progressive follow up.
