What a blythe bunch of popsters Sheffield's Tiny Dancers
appear to be from their new EP, Lions And Tigers And Lions
(no Oh My, but it does have a birotastic cover
illustration and hand lettering on the back).
They rock very softly, with plenty of '80s electro
influences thrown in, particularly on the opener, 20 to 9,
and the echoing final track, Going Away which has a good
chugging sing-along chorus, and an almost Spirit In The
Sky vibrating electronic riff going on in the background.
The rest of the time it's melodic soft rock, with a
country twang here and there, particularly on Sun Goes
Down.
The five numbers on this EP certainly demonstrate a broad
range, from Coral-style rambling acoustic pop (Hemsworth
Hallway) to harder edged, rocker moments at the end.
Whether this means they don't quite know what direction to
go in, or they're brimming with magpie ideas and just have
to let them all out remains to be seen, and no doubt their
promised debut album next year will bring some
clarification. In the meantime enjoy this pleasing mixed
bunch.
