Eva Petersen will be a name unfamiliar to some of you but she was the lead singer of ill-fated band The Little Flames with a certain Miles Kane.
It has been a long time coming but the scouse songstress has been working on new material with Echo & The Bunnymen’s Will Sergeant. The first fruits of their labour ,’Don’t Be Shy’, is bristling with a certain retro-1960s vibe permeated by her powerful and soulful voice.
Delighted to see Petersen back recording again, it has been too long. This evidence suggests her forthcoming album, penned for a 2012 release, is one to keep an eye out for.
