Retro Bar 78 Sackville St Manchester M1 3NJ 15/11/09 Tickley Feather is Annie Sachs. She grew up in rural Virginia but has been living in Philadelphia for 5 years now. She has been using her time learning to write and record her own music as part of her nights spent at home, adapting to being the single mother of a young child. Sachs is a four tracking hobbyist whose musical spirit dwells in the realm of her own natural inclinations. She is a firm believer in doing what feels right, and in her recordings she really uses her solo status to great advantage. It adds up a very personal sound which involves all sorts of sensations from serendipity to silliness, and even the sweet and eerie sound of her little boy’s voice as he tells her his ideas. Her recordings have been praised by critics from the start, with comparisons to work by artists such as Syd Barrett, Kate Bush, and Gilli Smith, and all the while being given credit for having a sound that is completely its own. Now she’s coming in from the outside to share her songs and it’s precious beyond value. Has opened for US label mates Animal Collective and is currently being heavily promoted by Paw Tracks following last month’s much anticipated release of album Hors D’Oeuvres (Drowned in Sound: 7/10). Can be filed under Americana or if you prefer file under Folk. Most definitely file under Interesting! www.myspace.com/tickleyfeather The wonderul To Sophia add their support along with Holy Grail. www.myspace.com/wotgodforgot |
