New York's Shy Child will travel across the expanse of ocean, no doubt upon a surging wave of lush, laidback synths and dense beats, to grace our shores with a headline tour to showcase their new album, "Liquid Love", released on the venerable Wall of Sound label this week.
Teaser tracks 'Disconnected' and 'Criss Cross' have already revealed a progression in sound, with addictive melodies colliding upon luxurious electro soundscapes. Their previous album, the critical and commercial breakthrough "Noise Won't Stop", brought the band to worldwide attention and thus their return is highly anticipated amongst music and fashion circles alike.
"Liquid Love" sees Shy Child venture into more mellow territory; the hyperactive sonic invasion of their earlier work has been softened by glistening layers of metropolitan house and synthesised, smooth falsetto vocals. Such infectious, 80's indebted electro will no doubt make for an intoxicating live performance when they take to the stage next month.
