Mary at Midnight

Somewhere in between day and night comes Mary at Midnight. A little bit Indian, a little bit English, Mary at Midnight couples live instruments with dreamy sampled beats, blending them with words often born from the chromosomes of too little sleep and an over-active imagination. The odd tabla beat or harmonium drone is wrapped up in a comforting blanket of satisfying electro beats and ethereal vocals.

The songs/delivery are really quite interesting for something basically in the Britney via Gwen Stefani mould.''
