intro
Wonderful download and MySpace only single from Bradford-formed, but now London-based indiepop group who are on the look out for a record deal
Bradford expatriats, that are on the look out for a record label deal, Summer Holiday have this wonderful accompaniment to your doldrums available from their MySpace page and as a download, but the regular release, provided there will ever be one, is the version to go for. Uplifting to the max, the 'slowly' version is a concentrated and stripped off version of the vogueish loungy original as it were. Very encouraging is the would-be B-Side 'Criminal' which hints at perhaps much greater things to come from Summer Holiday. Subdued horns, probably just samples but pretty most unrecognisable as such,and tomcat-like crooning make this effort comparable to Hot Chip, yet Summer Holiday have a superior singer and composer; it's a lovely tune that 'slowly' one.
