Listen: Dog In The Snow - "Concrete Wall"
Undulating. Amorphous. Bound by nothing with us at its will, the mighty and quiet majesty of the ocean is surely something Brightonian Helen Ganya Brown knows well.
Under her stage name of Dog In The Snow, Brown crafts unsettling, existential crises hewn with dashes of Daughter’s dreamy folk, dollops of Bat For Lashes’ pop grandeur, and sprinkles of Bjork’s eccentricity. Brown’s latest song, “Concrete Wall” quietly heaves and tugs like the very sea she’s undoubtedly cast her eyes out on thousands of times before.
As the flip side of the double-A single for “Africa”, “Concrete Wall” is far more simplistic in its construction, relying merely on Brown’s vocals atop a solitary guitar arpeggio, eventually awash in a sea of delicate string plucks. In a bit of irony, Brown sings of a youth encumbered by urban blandness, a notion which Brown’s music couldn’t be further from.
“Concrete Wall” and its sister song, “Africa”, are available together now. Catch Dog In The Snow supporting Real Estate and Alvvays 28 October at Komedia in Brighton.
