Sarah Moule

It's a Nice Thought

Linn Records AKD 192

Album description

“One of the reasons I love these songs is that they speak of universal themes in a voice that is original, contemporary and unafraid. They're also really enjoyable to sing.

Words and music are equal and balanced and the songs are a true collaboration. I've seen and heard Simon and Fran writing, negotiating (gloves off) over words and notes until they come to a truce. It can be quite a bloody battle.

Musically I like Simon's fresh take on harmonic and melodic formulae, the melodies are strong and always have a twist and the songs often have unusual phrase lengths not often found in the standard repertoire of show tunes.”
