NURIA GRAHAM
Bird Eyes
Music • CD[70/100]

06/04/2015, Paul PLEDGER
Barcelona's Nuria Graham is the latest intriguing artist to sign for local label El Segell Del Primavera and certainly the most hypnotic since Oso Leone and Joana Serrat's recent recordings. Bird Eyes is languid, cosmopolitan, eccentric pop that ropes in David Lynch atmosphere (I Worry Too Much), swoon-some summer grooves (Bad Luck) and trippy mournful dubbed-out Durutti Column-esque hooks (Ages), all gently topped off with Graham's honeyed tonsils. Suffice to say that while Bird Eyes won't change the world, it's an accomplished 40 minutes with some very pretty tunes.
