PIP BLOM KISS ME BY THE CANDLELIGHT

Pip Blom have teamed up with Personal Trainer vocalist Willem Smit for a funky new cut, ‘Kiss Me By The Candlelight’. The track recalls the likes of Metronomy with its minimalistic disco style, laced with undeniable hooks. “Long before Willem (from Personal Trainer) and I started seeing each other we had written a song together,” she explains on the track’s interesting backstory. “We were 16 and barely knew one another. It was uncomfortable and we were both really shy. but I've always really really liked the track.” Despite making a name for herself as one of the brightest voices in the indie rock sphere, the upcoming album, Bobbie, wanders in a synth-pop direction. This was an intentional decision, supported by Pip’s decision to bring in producer Dave McCracken as a co-writer. -Dan Peeke
