'Warning' is the latest four track E.P. by Newcastle based
singer-songwriter Savannah Betts. The album was produced by SoShe's Jamie
Johnson and it's a beautiful marriage of two very talented musicians. The gorgeously subtle electronic music
perfectly complements Betts' powerful vocals, enabling her to showcase her
range and technical skill through a series of stunning ballads.
The E.P. opens with the title track; 'Warning'; is a catchy
yet gloriously moody ballad that radiates a tranquil vibe and envelopes the
listener in Betts' bewitching vocals. This style is mirrored in the third track; 'Everything For You'; a charming, sentimental love song.
The following track 'Help' is the strongest on the E.P., as
it highlights Bett's extraordinary vocal range, leaving you breathless with
the power behind it. The guitar solo featured is also beautiful and goes onto
facilitate her vocals, creating an engaging harmony.
The final track 'Fade' is a more upbeat track, fuelled by
peppy ukulele and happy-go-lucky vocals. However it doesn't quite fit with the
rest of the very serious E.P. There's
nothing wrong with the track itself, it just doesn't wow me as much as the
other three do.
Despite this, it is an outstanding E.P. The sombre tone it resonates does require
your full attention as it is far from an easy listen - but it is so worth
actually sitting down and listening to it properly.
The E.P. is set to be released on Saturday 1st October, with
a celebratory launch gig at Nemix Studios in Newcastle
