Ben Dalby

Ben Dalby’s fourth single is a marked change from his Doctor Can single which wouldn’t have been out of place on the Ashes to Ashes soundtrack.

Champagne is an apt title for a song that still has an echo that wretched decade. Ostensibly there’s a laid back Sunday afternoon lets lounge about feel to it. However, it's deeper than that, and there’s a fair amount going on. A few close listens reveal a darker edge, Floydian touches here and there, along with some sterling guitar work.

It’s an intriguing song from an interesting artist, and hopefully there’s more to come.
