#GIRL YOU ARE MY LOVE FLAC WINDOWS#
If Earl Grey was a hot cup of tea and a cuddle on the sofa, Girl is being in a cab with the windows down on the way to a beach bar for sundowners. It’s unmistakably Girl Ray, but with added synths. A collection of shimmering, foot-tapping, sparkling pop bangers.

“I had to start learning how to write on a computer, using keyboards, and that made everything sound more pop,” she explains. Poppy began experimenting with writing songs over beats. “It looked like much more of a party,”) led to the band beginning to wonder if they could try their hand at making their own pop.Īfter that realisation, everything clicked into place. That, combined with Ari’s ballad of self-love and the party vibe they witnessed when touring with US band Porches (“their live game was so fun and super synthy and so danceable,” Sophie recalls. “Thank U, Next came out and that kind of changed everything,” Poppy says. It was Ariana Grande’s explosion into pop culture that kickstarted a new era for Girl Ray. Poppy started writing some new songs for their second record much like the sweet odes to longing, love and friendship on their debut. They hung about listlessly, struggled with bouts of feeling a bit shit and saw each together ritualistically despite not creating much music. “With Girl Ray, we knew we had found something special,” says Stephen Bass who signed the band in 2016.Īfter their tour rolled to a stop and Girl Ray’s members Poppy, Sophie and Iris floated back to earth, taking up employment in shops and restaurants. They’ve done far more than just “go pop.” To have the confidence to totally change one’s creative output is something so few artists manage, but they’ve nailed it.īack in 2017, the band Girl Ray released Earl Grey: a debut album of expertly-crafted, sweet, hummable songs about longing, friendship, self doubt and contemplation. Once upon a time they were written and recorded by artists – George Michael, Prince or Kate Bush for example – who wanted to use the universal, happy medium of pop music to put across joyous, accessible messages of love, friendship and life to the world.Īnd that’s what Girl Ray have done. High quality, timeless pop songs weren’t always created in offices by handfuls of writers and marketing teams and then farmed out to the highest bidding singers.
