ALBUM:
AFTERSPARK
Sometimes We Forget (Afterspark)
An understated collection of sweetly sung loveliness, this debut self-financed album is the result of Cate Ferris and Adam Staff's collaborative efforts as Afterspark. Taking the matter-of-fact, poetic lyricism of Kate Nash and Lily Allen down a greener path with its tales of compost and recycling, it also stops off back in time to visit The Sundays at a girls-only indie pop party. With growing local radio support and bookings around the UK, this spark is definitely in the ascendent. (NC)
