Our Take

In the ever-expanding world of indie folk, PICAPICA's debut album, "Spring & Shade," makes a charming entrance that's as unpredictable as British weather. The album sees the London-based quartet combining elements of Americana, jazz, and pop to create a sound that's as refreshing as a pint of cider on a sunny day.

Lead vocalist Josienne Clarke's ethereal voice dances effortlessly over shimmering guitar melodies and lush harmonies, creating a dreamy atmosphere that feels like lying in a field of wildflowers. Tracks like "On the Summer" and "Seashell" transport you to a place where the sun always shines and the grass is always green.

But don't be fooled by the album's sunny disposition – there's a darkness lurking beneath the surface. "Take it Slow" and "The Icing" delve into themes of heartache and longing, adding a depth and complexity to PICAPICA's otherwise breezy sound.

Overall, "Spring & Shade" is a delightful debut that showcases PICAPICA's impressive musicianship and songwriting skills. Whether you're picnicking in the park or sipping tea by the fire, this album is the perfect soundtrack to any season. So grab your wellies and your sunhat, and let PICAPICA take you on a musical journey through the Spring & Shade. Cheers!
