Track of the Week: Pass Time
Self-empowering and self-professing, soulful newcomer Lizzie Berchie delivers Pass Time, a debut full of life, colour and yearning.
With her influences firmly fixed in the sound she know oozes, Lizzie’s love of the greats and her production background has helped sharpen her craft, patiently waiting for the right time to unveil her refined art. Now is that time, with the East London singer-songwriter and producer causing a ripple through the burgeoning UK alternative soul scene with this enchanting offering, the first glimpse into Lizzie’s upcoming debut EP Under The Sun.
Layered harmonies, groove-laden percussion and poignant electric piano make up the soul-inducing jazzy instrumental. Lizzie serenades the soundscape seamlessly, delivering one of the most effortless vocal performances of the year. Just when you think the track can’t get any better, we are gifted a verse from one of the slickest, most talented rappers in the UK alternative space, Kofi Stone. The Birmingham-native never disappoints and Pass Time is no different, slotting into the tune with mellow ease and engrossing introspection.
