It’s no secret that I have a special place in my heart for the music of Pocketbooks, and I am very happy to see that their upcoming single is one of my favourites from their debut album “Flight Paths”. The single is called “footsteps” and will have it’s official release on 15 June on iTunes and on their own website. It’s a super-catchy pop song with some wonderful piano and trumpet elements accompanying Emma’s vocals. The album “Flight Paths”, which I can highly recommend, will be released on 13 July on How Does It Feel To Be Loved?. It is possible to buy advanced cd copies from the label, and I’ve had and loved mine for a while now. You can get it from here: http://www.howdoesitfeel.co.uk/shop.html
