Gently does it. Laura Groves is a singer songwritery lady who makes a pleasing noise on 'I Am Leaving' which reminds me a bit of Joanna Newsom but more kooky and twee indie sounding. It has a high twinkle factor despite it being largely played on acoustic guitar.... Very nice sounding record though and it will appeal to folks who like Nancy Elizabeth and that kind of shenanigans.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...


“Stunning Bradford singer-songwriter of much ethereal beauty” - Drowned In Sound
Laura Groves, 19 years of age, lives in the town of Shipley. Here she writes songs for various instruments, some of which she can play and some of which she can’t (but tries to anyway), and watches the interesting folk go by.   With deftly fingerpicked guitar, rich synths, layers of harmony and Laura’s mesmerising falsetto voice, ‘I Am Leaving’ draws the listener into her kaleidoscopic world and beyond; a world past Shipley station, over Shipley tower and out into the great outdoors.
