New Single: Nadine Shah - 'Stealing Cars'

 

Sweeping, mountainous instruments aloft the golden contralto of Nadine Shah populate the British songstress's new single, "Stealing Cars." The triumphant song, which marries a Johnette Napolitano voice with the dramatic flair of My Brightest Diamond, previews an as-yet-untitled 2015 album.

 

Shah's pedigree is impressive: She's opened for Depeche Mode and Bat for Lashes, and has earned kudos from SPIN, The Wall Street Journal and many more notable publications. Her style sounds timeless and futuristic, spooky and sunny. We're eager to hear what mastery may come from her sequel to last year's Love Your Dum and Mad.
