Single Review: Eddi Reader – Dragonflies (Rough Trade)

Eddi Reader

Eddi Reader’s been around now for over twenty years, of course, but never have I heard something from her that I’ve taken a like to so quickly.

‘Dragonflies’ is the staggeringly beautiful new single to be taken off of Eddi’s critically acclaimed album ‘Love Is The Way’, and is a waltzy, soft and melodic tune, sprinkled with sunshine, and a wander away from her trademark Scottish folk-inspired fare.

Soon to be appearing in the upcoming film ‘Me And Orson Wells’ (I will leave my obscene and inappropriate comments about one Mr. Efron out of this review, promise), Eddi continues to endear the world to her delicate and charming sound. Listen out for Eddi’s great cover of Amy Winehouse’s ‘Love Is A Losing Game’ on the back of this release. TW
