Description

Sivus debut album was preceded by Better Man Than He, following support across Radio 1 (Zane Lowe, Huw Stephens, Greg James, Phil & Alice), 6Music and XFM. Having already been confirmed for this years Reading & Leeds, Bestival and Wilderness festivals, Sivu has also announced an intimate UK tour for October. Sivu has won widespread acclaim and comparisons with the likes of Wild Beasts, Beck and Bombay Bicycle Club for his idiosyncratic take on baroque pop. This debut is a beautiful set of starry, dark-night-of-the-soul symphonies: songs that shimmer with minor chord melodies and fluttering beats, but also move variously into aggression, orchestration or stillness.
