Irish | The Sifting Pan

The young indie solo act SOAK hails from Northen Ireland

SOAK – Sea Creatures:

Here’s a nautical music adventure that will surely bring a smile to your face, and fill your stomach with butterflies of youthful bliss. Sea Creatures is awash in glowy feel-good vibes that will transport you to a moment of oceanic serenity. Life’s problems just seem to melt away under the influence of this lovely gem. After all, it’s hard to be mad at anything when your insides have been reduced to a goopy mess of positivity and joy.

SOAK is the solo work of a young and talented female singer-songwriter from Northern Ireland. At only 18 years old Bridie Monds-Watson is making some serious waves internationally with her heartfelt tunes that celebrate, albeit toned down, life and love. I’m sure a well crafted debut album is on the horizon for us all, but only more anticipation shall grow in its absence. Until that day comes, I’m perfectly content drifting away on the serene voyage that is Sea Creatures.

Happy St. Patricks Day! And what better way to celebrate this green holiday then with my favorite Irish band, Fight Like Apes! Fight Like Apes are noisy, stuck up, in your face, and they don’t give fuck about it all. Don’t believe me? Just look up the name of some of their songs. This is just the attitude I’m looking for in my Irish rock bands, along with good music of course. Battlestations is perhaps my favorite track off of their debut album Fight Like Apes And The Mystery Of The Golden Medallion, which came out late 2008.
