TOTT #3: SEASFIRE
We first featured this ‘melancholica’ four piece back in June when Ben Blackburn wrote about their second single ‘Heartbeat’ and it’s sonic progression from their first official release alongside a rapid developing fanbase. It seems that this Bristol outfit started as they meant to go on with the release of their ‘We Will Wake’ EP which brings a more anthemic quality to their sound compared to their early minimal foundations.
The tracks are still underpinned by the bands trademark trappings of melancholic piano and dark electronic beats, layered with soft vocals pouring tales of heartbreak. Seasfire have garnered support from Huw Stephens and Annie Mac as well as being one of the most blogged artists of 2012, they have also played the BBC Introducing stage at the Reading and Leeds Festivals and supported the likes of Bastille and Spector. If they continue you like this then they’re set for an even bigger year in 2013.
