Hollywood Gossip - Dear As Diamonds (Independent)
Hollywood Gossip claim to be former paparazzi - so their sunny pop sound is snappy, focussed and liable to leap from behind a bush and surprise you. But you’ll smile at this Austin, Texas sound. There’s a Smiths jangle and an Orange Juice jump in “Summer Haze” and the 60’s beat sound of “Turn it Up” is insidious and infectious. This is an album to savour in the shade of a summer evening, a little drunk, with your feet up on the balcony, tapping your feet together and closing your eyes to get that wonderful sunset glow on your lids. Odds on your beautiful next-door neighbour will call in to share the moment. By closing love song “All That I Want” you will be holding hands.
