Fire In Her Eyes are a young trio who sound unashamedly and brilliantly old. They’ve name checked Stevie Nicks, Erykah Badu and Grace Slick as influences. They’ve expressed admiration for the incredible disco lords Heatwave and say they wish they’d written “After The Love Has Gone”, the most glorious Earth Wind and Fire ballad ever. I only heard about them for the first time this past week after reading a lukewarm review of this, their latest single, “Presenting”. We’re not going to be lukewarm. “Presenting” is an unquestionably beautiful thing, ridiculously sophisticated, soulful and slightly psychedelic and features some pretty immaculate harmonizing. It’s a sweet mix of vintage Sugababes ( the original 3 ), Wilson Phillips, and Carole King, which is to say it’s a proper song and it’s mighty, mighty fine.
