Fresh from their stunning live show at Chinnerys, Southend’s Rooskin release their new single ‘Eloise’. Can it match up to their dreamy debut EP ‘Honey Spells’?
Despite the gloom of cvoid, their ability to conjure a sonic drenched in the summertime hasn’t diminished. Between Rob and Matt’s guitars and ethereal keys of Buddy Caderni, they summon the sun easier than Helios. Not even Kurt Vile has this access!
As with their live show, ‘Eloise’ goes to another level because of the spirit they invoke. They’ve funnelled ‘Teenage Kicks’ through their lo-fi genius of ‘Living Proof’ and sprinkled it with their psychedelic surf sound.
Their youthful buoyancy is echoed lyrically with a newfound hope:
“It’s the longest I’ve been without needing to pretend, that my luck / It ain’t running out”
As we approach the last throes of summer, let Rooskin provide suspiciously high levels of serotonin with their angelic fuzz and sun-kissed charm.
