SAMANTHA MARAIS
The Peppermint Conspiracy
BUTTERFLY RECORDINGS

If you’re looking for comparisons, think Sandy Denny, Kate Bush and the utterly compelling Francoise Hardy. Marais is a South-African born chanteuse who was influenced by her father’s passion for Bob Dylan. This is an outstanding work of real class. If you only buy one record this year by a previously unknown artist, make it this one.Our record of the week. ****
