Listen :: Coquin Migale - SOCOTRA




Words: Kim Mann

Newcastle foursome Coquin Migale lit up up the blogosphere a few months ago with their stunning debut 'GOLD'. Hell, even Huw Stephens was spinning it, which in turn started attracting attention from major labels. But that really doesn't interest us, does it?

Now they are back again with a second track from their 'FEEL' EP called 'SOCOTRA'. And it looks like more of the same.

Alex Soper's otherworldly vocals impressing again on this track with what can only be described as an explosion of a chorus. It's pretty hard to put your finger on what Alex is singing about, but maybe that matters not. There's a fragility and intensity to this track that manages to pull you in. The band tell us that more new tracks are due at the end of summer. It will be interesting to see if what they deliver next is as impressive as these first showings. Keep the name in mind.

And if you're Newcastle way on July 11, check them out live with Baby Strange at the Tynemouth Surf Cafe.
