Биография

Making music described as “glitter bursting from every chorus” and combining “the ominous glimmer of synth-wave with the maximalist fun of Carly Rae Jepsen’s ’80s throwbacks”, Carla J Easton is a pop songwriter with a back catalogue that would make most people envious. From Futuristic Retro Champions, through indie pop upstarts TeenCanteen, a record under the name Ette, to the solo albums Impossible Stuff (shortlisted for the 2019 SAY Award and produced by Arcade Fire cohort Howard Bilerman) and WEIRDO , Carla J Easton writes essential indie pop. Sitting proudly alongside The Vaselines, BMX Bandits (who have covered her songs) and Belle & Sebastian, with whom she co-wrote the track “Best Friend” , collaborating with Honeyblood and Solareye she is considered alongside the best Scottish music has had to offer over the past few decades. WEIRDO is a record that Bandcamp described as “all volume needles buried in the red, glitter bursting from every chorus.” The Line of Best Fit praised its “maximalist” tendencies while hinting that Scotland has found its own answer to the pop titans Carly Rae Jepsen and Taylor Swift and Pitchfork called it “bubblegum pop [with] the scrappy glamour of a homemade theatrical production”. Finding her voice, Carla J Easton is in the position now where she is consistently releasing music that’s talked about in terms of albums of the year garlands in Scotland, and beyond. -Andrew Hannah, Bright Dead Things 2020
