Kelly Dance Impresses with “Head in the Noose”

Kelly Dance offers us a delicious taste of her forthcoming debut album, Goodnight Berlin, with the lead single Head In The Noose.

As its title suggests, this is an unflinching, searing track. I love its raw honesty. What an incredible mix of lyric, stripped back melody, and compelling vocals. It’s got me very excited about Goodnight Berlin, which is due to hit stores on May 17.

I hear the album is “dark and nostalgic, sweet and unsettling”, which all sounds pretty perfect to me. Kelly recorded it over ten days and nights holed up in a German studio. She’s joined by guest vocalists Toby Martin of Youth Group and Adrian Roberts from The Maple Trail, who also wrote one of the album’s songs.

It’s early days, but I think Kelly’s going to be one to watch this year.
