Duo To Check Out: The Flight - 'Sarah' (Single)
Joe Henson and Alexis Smith of The Flight return with the leading title track of their upcoming, EP 'Sarah ' to be released via Apologetic Recordings.
Having personally fallen in love with their debut EP with a special kind of affection for the titular track and its accompanying music video, The Flight then took a sunnier approach to their follow up EP, 'The Sinner Inside' that showed their many different talents in a whole different light.
New single 'Sarah' sees a split of direction, beginning with a driving indie-folk guitar rhythm, formidable vocals courtesy of Kami Thompson of the The Rails and a steady electronic bass beat before taking an unexpected ambient turn with experimental, chilled, glistening, trip hop beats.
On paper, it seems quite risky marrying a haunting, peculiar, soundscape with euphoric, atmospheric, choral breaks and synthwork. But the risk has paid off for The Flight who show another fantastically inventive and unconventional side, constantly impressing, evolving and surprising.
