Building up with a strolling, uncompromising Amy Studt-veined defiance and
self-assurance into a quirky Cat Power chorus, this underlines the promise of 23 year old Norwegian. Ida Maria parades independent minded lyrics through slightly eccentric but endearing vocal lag.
‘Queen Of The World’ is moody yet uplifting and shows an increasing cosmopolitan depth to modern pop music, with an old fashioned guitar lob providing a touch of nostalgia.
Small town rebellion is delivered with hearty abandon and builds upon the promise shown on two singles released through her own label, Nesma Records. Ida is determined to do things her own way and this single shows a certain defiance of current trends.
This summer sees the release of Ida’s debut album, and the signs are there already to suggest that it could be the perfect accompaniment to a balmy summer’s evening in front of the campfire.
