May/Outcast Cats

The brainchild of Dutch-English songwriter Richard Bolhuis, globetrotting blues rockers House Of Cosy Cushions offer up two very contrasting tracks; the raspy and sinister ‘Outcast Cats’ and lo-fi swoonworthy number, ‘May’. While the spiky strings on the former make it down right irresistible, I just can’t help favouring the latter’s simplistic charms. Luckily, I don’t have to chose, as both appear on this double A-side single.
