Fresh from touring Europe with Rebecca Ferguson and Eels, the Davis 'soul sisters' return with a record that perfectly captures their wide-eyed enthusiasm and playful spirit. The album contains a more musically diverse collection of songs than their debut, blending pop, soul, gospel and even a country twang in places. Whereas the first album was centred around vocal and acoustic guitar, British Soul builds from a much richer musical base, but the girls impressive vocals remain very much the focus.
This is undoubtedly a more mature record, but that doesn't mean it takes itself too seriously. This is still a very fun record, perfectly witnessed on lead single 'Catch Me If You Can.' That's not to say there aren't some more reflective moments, most notably 'Honest Woman' a polite nudge for a life-long union, and their unexpected but successful re-working of 'Amazing Grace' which brings the album to a close.
You get the feeling that life is one long adventure for Daughters of Davis and who wouldn't want to just be a part of it? Track Listing:
