EP Press
"Wonderful" - John Peel
“One of Scotland's
fastest rising solo artists” – Beatscene, Beat 106.
“Endearing, 4/5” – The List
From the Dutch webzine 'Think Small' comes this review of the EP, roughly translated
into English.
"Is the stream of good music from Scotland never ending? After Belle &
Sebastian, Camera Obscura and The Pearlfishers, we now have a singer called
Ally Kerr that drips out of the speakers with a pop sound. Midst of the Storm,
Ally Kerr's debut record is a mixture of the aforementioned bands. Apart from
the titletrack, the EP contains two more semi-acoustic jewels. We can only hope
that later this year (or at the beginning of next year) another record appears,
for I really want to hear more of this. Must-buy for fans of Scottish indie-pop!"
Another review, this one from the Jockrock website
"Another singer-songwriter with a summery feel, suiting a Spanish release
on Elefant, but there's something about this which sets it aside. Not too Californian,
and not too Scottish (i.e.Fanclub) either. The title of 'Another Winters Day'
probably tells you as much - with its lazy guitar work perhaps closer to early
Aztec Camera in places. 'Without You' is pop with a timeless quality and 'Midst
of the Storm' would grace any chart, anywhere in the world."
