'Sienna' is not only the beautiful and sophisticated new single from London-based alt-pop six-piece The Night VI, it is also the 2nd single to be released on up and coming label, Duly Noted Records; who so far have scored a successful 2 out of 2 on releasing tracks from bands and musicians the blogging world can't seem to get enough of.
Comprised of Sophie-Rose Harper, Jack Gourlay, Anna Pesquidous, Bo Morgan, Kristy Buglass & Bogart Giner, The Night VI have created a track that shimmers and glitters like disappointed stars who have no choice but to shine on in the vast night sky. Sophie-Rose's vocal tone is also the most enchanting and effortlessly tingle-invoking I have heard in quite some time, that in parts takes a soulful R&B Beyoncé-esque turn.
The track developed when "Jack came into a writing session with half a hangover on a Monday morning and offloaded a story about meeting his new girlfriend's ex and the hostile encounter that had ensued" recalls lead vocalist Sophie-Rose. "It got us thinking about the special hurt when you're the one that's been left behind. Lyrically the song became a patchwork of past relationships that hadn't grown into what we were once so sure they would become."
Warm and welcoming, 'Sienna' is a mature offering that has bundles of potential and despite its reflective lyrics, there are no bites of bitterness or harsh resentment in its sound. The single will be released April 28th, but is available to purchase digitally now via Duly Noted Records. .
