Well, If there’s a more beautiful slice of indie pop released this year, we’ll eat our ill-fitting cardigans.
With Caroline of Brunswick Square, The Perfect English Weather return after a five-year absence with a single so effortlessly elegant, it feels like they were never away. There’s a warmth to the track, an ease in its gently jangling guitars, and a chorus so sublime it could make lesser bands weep with envy. Yet, beneath its swinging sixties charm, there’s an undercurrent of wistful melancholy—perhaps nostalgia, but not quite.
Simon and Wendy Pickles (of The Popguns) craft something that feels both timeless and immediate, with crystalline vocals that glide over pristine instrumentation. It’s a song that demands repeat listens, not just for its melody but for the emotion it so effortlessly carries. And with Just Beyond The Lights arriving this spring, it’s a tantalizing glimpse of what’s to come.
