With her crystal-clear voice, Neve Bowen is offering her soul to all on her new EP Lifeline…. and it’s deeply moved by both her voice and her words, that I publish my review for her EP.
LIFELINE – NEVE BOWEN
The exercise the 19-year-old Londoner, Neve Bowen, gets into is far from being simple, all done with an intricate softness. The main track, Lifeline, is the balance between light and darkness. In the vaporous space the singer has thoughtfully built, there is a fight between anxiety and hope, one unable to live without the other here. There’s a need to talk about the fear of dying young. It’s raw and honest. It’s a wonderful way to open her debut EP. The whole record is made of that delicate softness, even on vivacious and strong tracks like Deep Blue Ocean, and the electric, deep, and moving Song For Anna. Haunting Sound of Love and the acoustic version of Lifeline then close the EP by showing how strong, hypnotic, and poignant Neve Bowen’s voice is. The young artist ought to surprise us again in the future.
