Revealing himself to the world, Dessie Magee debut EP, Restrain, is a marriage of folk and rock which will leave you on tenterhooks waiting to see what’s around each melodical corner.
With a voice so raw its edge could split your soul right open, this Belfast born, Brighton based artist is a master of texture. Infecting each of these tracks written while on an anxiety-inducing solo tour around America with both the light and dark in his own signature fashion. Epitomised by ‘Restrain’, this title track claws at the edges of softness before falling deep into an undergrowth of sound without a moments notice. Lulling you into a false sense of security which allows you to focus on the lyrics before euphoric blasts of guitar and smashing drums to emphasise his unease.
Intoxicating and exhilarating, Dessie Magee’s debut is a collection you won’t be able to restrain yourself from listening to again and again.
