GOAT GIRL

London based indie outfit Goat Girl enjoyed a breakout year in 2016 with a debut single on Rough Trade and features in trendy music mags BEAT (including a cover) and So Young. You could be forgiven for thinking that their latest single ‘Crow Flies’ has a lot to live up to then, but with its lo-fi mash up of 60’s psychedelia and 80’s underground punk rock, this all female quartet are well up to the challenge.

Heavy bass lines that wouldn’t sound out of place on Fugazi’s 13 Songs and meandering vocal harmonies intertwine to create something quite special. I defy you not to be humming ‘Crow Flies’ long after the track ends.
