Amy Lou Star Wars Tattoo and Other Stories EP Review






Amy Lou is one of the most interesting songwriters I have heard. While everyone is playing follow leader, she proudly marches to the beat of her own drum. Her EP Star Wars Tattoo and Other Stories is condensed goodness. An offbeat hybrid of country and folk music, Amy Lou paints a colourful but real picture of what it’s like to be an outsider in a changing world. Star Wars Tattoo is a strong opener with a short but sweet guitar solo. She Wants to Be a Marine Biologist is just Amy Lou and an acoustic guitar proving without other instruments her songs can stand up on their own. The tracks Chania Twayne, The Girl from Dundee and Drunk Snog have a honesty and purity about them that is missing altogether from modern music. Keep writing more Amy Lou.
