Single review: Singing Adams – I Need Your Mind/Amateur Reactions
Less than a year since The Broken Family Band split having decided the band had run their course, front man Steven Adams is back with a new band and a new sound. On the basis of this, Singing Adams first release, he has forsaken the fragile and slightly quirky folk for a much fuller warmer and generally poppier sound. While I was quite a fan of the Broken Family Band for me this is a great improvement. He hasn’t forgotten how to write a great song though; I could give you something to think about/if you could give me something to put in mouth sings Adams on the percussion led ‘I Need Your Mind’. The radio 2 friendly flip side ‘Amateur Reactions’ is really cool and laid back, it sounds how I would imagine The National would sound if they had been around in the eighties. I Need Your Mind/Amateur Reactions is a really strong debut, can’t wait to hear the album! 8/10
