Listen: Tirzah – “No Romance”
Few indies can boast a better 2013 hit-rate than Joe Goddard’s dance boutique, Greco-Roman; at the apex of the Hot Chip man’s roster rests London soulstress Tirzah – aided very capably by childhood pal and producer extraordinaire, Micachu.
If its title-track is anything to go by, new EP, No Romance - the follow-up to their first vibrant collaboration, Don’t Watch Me Dancing - promises to take in yet more trip-hop, RnB and pop thrills. An apparent step towards dissecting romanticism - they’ve dubbed this one their “emo” record - hasn’t dulled their dancefloor appetite; we can imagine padding down the stairs at the club to this one’s thumping, throbbing beat and irrepressible vocal hook with no difficulty at all.
A hearty welcome back to the UK’s next big dance vocalist.
