Sóley, a member of the Icelandic troupe Seabear, is prepared to drop her sophomore release, We Sink, October 4 on Morr Music. A keyboardist and backup vocalist by trade, first thoughts on her solo project is that she was made for the spotlight. “I’ll Drown” is the first track we’ve heard from the forthcoming LP and it joins the experimental pop sounds of Seabear and Sin Fang with the unique, quite spirited vocals of Sóley Stefánsdóttir.
Intricate and intimate, “I’ll Drown” is layered with thick textures, overlapping vocals and a heavy emphasis on piano and percussion. Grab the track below and look for We Sink, likely available for pre-orders sometime in September. Sóley’s debut EP, Theater Island is out now on Morr.
