Leeds Music Promotions - EP Review

30/11/2008 17:24:56 By Blind River Scare

Blind River Scare are now back in Wales after recently completing a first tour of Yorkshire. Their obvious love of Folk Rock/Americana and Alternative-Country shines through their five track CD "Killing Time." The track "Out of my Hands" will surely become an audience participation favourite, especially as their fan-base increases. Over the years West Yorkshire has seen "The Durburvilles" become firm favourites on the "Live" music-scene with their "feel-good" sound and performances, Blind River Scare have the same quality. The combination of talented vocalists Tim Manning and Lisa Matthews, backed up by Jem Ponsford on drums, bassist Tim Brooke and fiddle player Debbie Hawkins produces a rounded and warm feel to each track. This is a CD which is ideal after a hard day at work, when the need to be lifted and transported to a "better place" is at it premium and the requirement of a feel-good quick-fix is at its height.
