Release Notes:
She is a Brit School graduate, but Polly Scattergood couldn't be further removed from her contemporaries. An Essex girl who finds a disquieting delight in suicide, she is Sylvia Plath to Katie Melua's Pam Ayres.
Scattergood is no overnight success story either. Her first single, Glory Hallelujah, came out in 2005, but it was the startling electro-symphony Nitrogen Pink, released in September 2007, that made the 22-year-old one to watch.
But while she is experimental on record, Scattergood is hesitant and shy in person. She tip-toes on stage, and meets wolf whistles, inspired by her Blondie tendrils and black puffball dress, with a nervous smile.
When she sings, Scattergood channels her fear into achingly intimate pleas and powerful rages. Her trembling voice recalls Kate Bush and Tori Amos, her arms wafting around her head,hands clawing the air, visibly wrestling with the insecurities and bitter imagery that litter her songs.
Yet stripped of her usual backing, Scattergood's uniquely skewered songwriting and versatile voice shine brighter, and the solo effort loosens her up. Her usual suffering is swapped for swinging hips during the poppy Please Don't Touch. Bu tit's Nitrogen Pink that prompts her broadest smiles, as she senses escape is near.
Her self-titled album is due for release March 9th 2009 on Mute Records and check out herwww.myspace.com/pollyscattergood for her future gigs.I'm personally loving album already!
