Shhe is the new moniker/project from the artist formerly known as Panda Su, (Su Shaw, now relocated to Dundee) who recently spent some time in Iceland and has returned with this new material.
The track begins quite starkly with Su’s very distinctive vocals over a sparse electronic/guitar backing before it launches into something more trancey, with a pulsing beat. It also sounds quite claustrophobic, like a downbeat cousin of Chvrches.
Haunting and plangent, BM understands she has already played one live date and there are more planned, mainly in Edinburgh, including the Hidden Door Festival at Leith Theatre (25 & 26 May).
Absorbing and original, hopefully there will be more soon.
