Now Norman Buddies Static Caravan have released a new 7"  single from the Harpist SERAFINA STEER entitled 'Peach Heart'. Is there a more relaxing and soothing instrument than the harp? It's played well with smooth and delicate vocals its a formula that is as powerful and strong as the piano wire used to hang Mussolini. The songs are subtle and quite traditional sounding but its the overall feeling this single gives you that tickles the spine. Truly lovely (Comparisons are going to be towards Joanna Newsom etc.)

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

Hot Ovaltine before bedtime! The static brothers haven’t been this excited in a while. Well certainly not since the 40th anniversary 'lamb lies down' tour rumours. SEFA, Serafine Steer dropped her demo through the van's post box after a myspace handshake. Woha! and what a doozy it is. Two tracks of harp-led beauty. Playing that intrigues with its melodramatic scope and words that appear to have been beamed direct from Superman’s alternative bizzaro world. A world where John Humphries isn’t a Radio 4 newsreader but a psych freak DJ spinning tunes at the Green Man festival. Kooky is a phrase over-used for female artists with original voices, but there is a connection here with such fellow musical visionaries as Bat For Lashes, CocoRosie, Joanna Newsom, Bjork and even the Flying Lizards.
