Description

Those Eyes welcomes to Eilis Frawley on tour from Berlin! Support from Glasgow's Tupper Werewolf described as "An impulsive exploration in positive 'dance' music".

It's really different, there's nothing else like it around at the moment" - John Kennedy, Radio X

...tight and catchy beats - Tom Tom Magazine

Fusing together innovative layers of instrumentation and speech, it's a wonderfully unique cacophony - Get In Her Ears

Krautrock-precision drum rhythms overlaid with straight and true spoken word vocals. If we had to pick two musical reference points, we'd say it has the attitude and style of Tune-Yards coupled with the experimental swagger of Battles - LOLA Magazine

Quite unlike anything you've yet heard 'Never Too Emotional'' is the debut EP from Berlin-based Eilis Frawley (Party Fears, I Drew Blank). A solo drummer and percussionist Frawley layers her Krautrock-precision rhythms with spoken word vocals for a release which is at once avante-garde yet resonates deeply with experiences of modern life.

Speaking about the release Frawley said: The seeds of 'Never Too Emotional' were planted in late 2018, out of the desire to create a project with drums at the focal point paired with spoken word, synths and samples. 'Never Too Emotional' touches on topics of social structures, feminism, mental health, creative insecurities, personal tragedies, and the psychological impacts of living abroad. Playing drums in multiple bands over the past eight years has been, and continues to be, a source of inspiration for my solo work. The contrast allows me to challenge the role of a solo musician and to embrace the endless and unexpected possibilities of creating alone.

Classically trained and playing in bands wherever she's settled in the world Frawley may have bags of experience but has only been creating as a solo artist since August 2018. A fast worker ideas went to recordings to record label Reckless Yes in just a year and debut single 'illusions' was released last Autumn followed by 'strangers' and final single 'intellectual men' will lead into the EP.
