Sky Larkin

I can’t remember the last time a band grew on me in the way that Sky Larkin have. When I first heard their songs a couple of months ago, I didn’t really find them all that great. Since then, the new songs they have put out onto their Myspace page have blown me away and the older songs now find them getting regularly play on my iPod. It’s hard for me to pin down exactly what I didn’t like about them now as they are really good.

Continuing their run of fantastic demo recordings, we now have ‘One of Two’. One of the best things about the way Sky Larkin releases these is that you can actually hear the development in their sound. The instrumentation here is richer and more layered than in the previous songs (and it was damn good there too) and Katie Harkin’s voice just continues to sound more and more assurd with every new song. Sky Larkin have to be one of the most talented unsigned bands in the UK, and there’s no sign of that changing anytime soon. Somebody needs to get these kids a recording contract quick. They have the potential to be huge.
