Our latest Navigator Track of the Week is Fiona Bevan’sSlo Mo Tiger Glo, which you may recognise from an HSBC TV advert and which is taken from her debut album Talk To Strangers.
Bevan describes the album as “pop in disguise” and its easy to see why with hooks, harmonies and melodies that linger from first listen, as rooted in the past as they are in the present and purposely hard to pin down. Among the guitars, drums and piano, you’ll hear violin, double bass, accordion and harp, all played by Bevan, a hapi drum played by producer Shawn Lee and birdsong, some of it real, some of it whistled by Bevan-as-bird.
