ROCH CLOSER

ROCH is a brand new emerging singer-songwriter from London, whose identity remains a semi-secret for now. We know she's a student at the city's Central St. Martin's and her heartbreaking debut track comes from sessions with a glut of stellar collaborators, including, according to The Line Of Best Fit, Ben Christophers (Bat For Lashes), Richard Frenneaux (Laura Welsh), and Leo Abrahams (Wild Beasts). A stripped-back indie number, 'Closer' leans on some of the great songwriters of the 00s for inspiration; freckled with gently snaking guitar hooks and undulating piano chords it could easily slot right into place on Lianne La Havas' breakup record or any of Sharon Van Etten's back catalogue for that matter. - DC
