SOMETHING NEW: ‘Patience’ – KT Tunstall

Taken from her 7 track EP, ‘Patience’ follows suit of the style of the entire CD – that of just KT and her guitar, and in this particular track, a guitar made from whiskey barrels. Surely that’s already worthy of a Blue Monday Music recommendation huh?

What I’ve always loved about KT’s voice is that it’s effortless and no more so is this evident than in such a stripped back track such as this. Her voice is gentle but that rasp maintains the true emotion, add in a catchy hook and it makes an absolute delight for your ears. I don't know what swagger Cher Lloyd bashes on about, but this song has authentic swagger and simplicity running through its veins.
If I lived in an old American shack, I’d be sat right now on my porch listening to this as the sun went down. And it would seem only right, that I’d be joined by a single malt.
