Our Take

Ah, KIRSTY MACCOLL's "Kite" album is like a breath of fresh air on a rainy day in London. With her distinctive vocals and witty songwriting, this album effortlessly blends folk, pop, and a sprinkle of punk attitude.

The opening track "Innocence" sets the tone perfectly, with its catchy melody and clever lyrics. MACCOLL's voice floats effortlessly over the acoustic guitar, drawing you in with each word. As you delve deeper into the album, you'll find gems like "Free World" and "Don't Come the Cowboy with Me, Sonny Jim!" - each track showcasing her storytelling prowess and sharp humor.

What sets "Kite" apart from other albums is its ability to transport you to different worlds with each song. One moment you're wandering through the streets of Soho, and the next you're sipping tea in a quaint English village. MACCOLL's eclectic influences shine through, creating a truly unique listening experience.

Overall, "Kite" is a delightful journey through MACCOLL's musical landscape. It's a testament to her talent as a singer-songwriter and a reminder of the impact she left on the music industry. So grab a cuppa, sit back, and let KIRSTY MACCOLL take you on a whimsical ride through "Kite." Cheers, mate!
