Wild Belle: “Keep You” from s/t EP (Columbia, 9/18/12)
Siblings Natalie and Elliot Bergman (the latter of Nomo) are the duo behind Wild Belle, whose sultry, funky dub pop picked up buzz after the band’s stint at last year’s SXSW. As its first single, “Keep You” is a stark arrival, a blend of reggae grooves, funky horns, shuffling beats, and Natalie’s intoxicating vocals.
Pretty cool list of songs for 2012.
