GIRL IN RED MIDNIGHT LOVE

Returning with yet another impressively vulnerable release, Norway’s Girl In Red has released ‘Midnight Love’. She calls it her “best work so far” and explains that “It’s my first song with a piano, but the approach of writing it was a bit different than usual too. Even though I’m singing from my perspective, as the ‘’victim’’, in real life it was actually me who was ‘bad guy’”. The delicate, quiet accompaniment blends live instruments with subtle electronics, allowing a powerful, airy lead vocal to sit above. This track comes after an already successful start to 2020, which has seen the Norwegian singer-songwriter contribute to the soundtrack of Spielberg-produced The Turning and become the first Gay Times cover artist. - Dan Peeke
