Strong romantic pop from Danish singer and Radio 2 favourite, Tina Dico
Review
Currently touring the UK, Danish singer Tina Dico has already attracted media attention, her gravely voice lending itself to dark pop songs about love and heartbreak.
The album has gained recognition as album of the week at Radio 2. It went to number four on the iTunes album chart and Dico is hot off the heels of an American tour.
The album is very consistent with Dico playing both acoustic guitar and piano. The songs are emotionally charged and in the vein of Michelle Branch and Vanessa Carlton.
Opening track and second single, ‘Losing’, is a favourite with gentle piano notes and violin sections carrying the song alongside her dark lyrics. ‘Nobody’s Man’ is another strong track that will sit well with fans of romantic pop and acoustic ‘Room With A View’ offers softer sounding vocals.
Overall this is a good pop album by an artist that can both sing and play an instrument, which is a rarity in today’s pop charts.
