Keyboard player/programmer Stephanie Brown may hail from New Zealand, but there’s definitely some kind of nordic component in her music. After performing for 3 years in a blues band, in 2010 she started working on a solo project that’s not bluesy at all: Lips. She recently released some really good new tracks that are somewhat reminiscent of Oh Land (but darker) or Bjork (but less orchestrated). We are really enjoying in particular the track streaming below, entitled "Ghost and Demons". Lips played Spike Hill last Saturday, check the band’s bandcamp profile for upcoming shows.
