Press Reviews *http://www.clairecords.com/isobella/IsobellaRev.html* for reviews. The Sun In Her Eyes by Akasha. This track opens with one of the loveliest shimmering guitars sounds I have heard in a long time which ultimately swarm all over the fragile vocals resulting in an extremely dreamy piece of music. Lay back and listen - ambient Indie or what?. Very good and almost choice of the month. One for fans of all things 4AD or Creation (Pale Saints, early Ride etc.)
