ROCH merges subtle synths with intense vocals on second offering "Kintsugi"
ROCH has shared a sublime new track called "Kintsugi".
Ben Christophers (Bat For Lashes, Cold Specks) has produced the track, which follows debut cut "Closer". Sweeping bass notes merge with flickering guitars to create a gorgeous launchpad for ROCH's ethereal vocal line, with the odd synth creeping into to augment the track's textures.
Speaking about its creation, ROCH says: “...I was listening to a lot of early Grace Slick when I wrote ‘Kintsugi’ which was a major influence, but the song is mainly about feeling estranged from where you are or who you are, and that sense you have when finding yourself in unfamiliar situations and having to make conscious decisions to arrive at that certain point without knowing how you got there…"
The 21-year-old Londoner is set to play a free show at the Old Blue Last on 1 December.
