Bel Casino
Seventeen EP
Friday 30th of July 2010
Bel Casino are from Bournemouth, so it's no surprise to discover that the beaches have had a heavy influence on their sound. 'Waves' is the early manifestation of this, with an easy-going rhythm and a chilled vocal.
This song is a swayer with just a hint of electric guitar to add small hooks to the largely acoustic-led sound.
'Two Stars' is a little lighter and brighter with tons of personality and flickers of something a little bit special.
Finally 'Seventeen' trickles out another charming tune with a subtle guitar hook and more of that promise that we got a taste of in 'Two Stars'.
Bel Casino are a breath of fresh sea-air. Their warm sound is sure to bring some of that famous Dorset micro-climate to your speakers.
