Passerine: Sounds from a Disco, Somewhere Between New York and Jamaica… Featuring vocalist Phoebe Dubar and members of seminal groove bands True Live, The Bamboos and the Raah Project, Passerine's debut EP has been produced by Ryan Ritchie (True Live, The Raah Project, Kimbra, Brous, Paris Wells), giving organic weight to Dubar's lyrical depth and chilled out vocal delivery The resulting EP is a collection of six vibrant tracks that skirt the borders between dub, disco, trip hop, chillout and jazz. And lead single, Ready to Begin, has already been pricking up ears around the globe. A hook-laden, band driven indie pop gem, Ready to Begin is pure, summery fun. It begs to be danced to. "Say hello to Passerine and Ready To Begin from the debut Passerine EP. It’s a bit dub and a bit disco and a whole lot of under the skin addictiveness in one great track. If you like your band driven tracks with references from the likes of LCD Soundsystem, Moloko and The Rapture, we reckon you should definitely be getting onboard the Passerine express." yourmusicradar.com, 26 May 2013 "This is seriously a really really great start to what we're sure is going to be a really great musical career." Wallflowerfood.com (USA), 18 May 2013 "I know there'd be a particular set of listeners who'd be really into this stuff... classic chill out stuff." Dave Ruby Howe, Triple j "The musical gang around around Phoebe Dubar is well known for their previous projects but this combination is the combined magic of an organically grown band with experienced members. The dubby disco sound is programmed to set fire to the dancefloor and take your hearts to higher frequencies. Its time to fall for the Passerine and let this paradise bird enchant its audience." Amselcom.de (Berlin), 19 May 2013 Somewhere between the dance floor and the bedroom, you will find Passerine.
