Tortoise Shout!

Self-titled CD single

self-released

Genre: indie pop, acoustic pop, singer/songwriter

London, UK

May 19, 2009

Dawn Lintern and Wendy Solomon constitute Tortoise Shout!, a pretty indie pop act out of London, England. These songs are interestingly written singer/songwriter types, boasting strong, swooping vocals care of Lintern. Clocking in at two tracks, it's difficult to get a sense of what these two are capable of based on this single alone, but these compositions certainly show potential. Especially charming is the marginally frenetic peaks and valleys of the second track, "30th June." Recommended for fans of elegant, mature pop music.
