Lenka: ‘Gravity Rides Everything’

Lenka – ‘Gravity Rides Everything’

Last week I had the pleasure of chatting to former Decoder Ring frontwoman, and now solo artist in her own right, Lenka, about her debut record. There’s a chance that if you were a fan of her former band that you won’t like her new solo material. It’s sprightly pop, bordering on bubblegum in some points, although the intelligent lyrical content helps save it from being more than just disposable sound.

Preceding her album a the release (digital-only… I think) called The Woodstock Sessions EP, named after the studio she recorded part of her debut in. It’s a completely acoustic affair, and includes this – a cover of Modest Mouse’s ‘Gravity Rides Everything’.
