So where have we got to with Chlöe Howl? She first started making appearances on the internet around the same time as London Grammar, yet since then they seem to have had quite different paths mapped out for them. London Grammar’s was simple – a clear smooth one with no junctions, crossroads, potholes, dead end corners, or dog turds left by uncaring hound owners, just signposts marked single, album, tour, another single, another bigger tour. Yet with Chlöe the path has been a bit more zig-zag and at times has resembled a maze.
There's a sense that Chlöe is very close to getting out of the maze though, for there are new songs being released and finally there will be an LP. We heard one last weekend at Bushstock called Tomorrow’s Far Away and yesterday she put out another. You won’t be disappointed with Disappointed (sorry we couldn’t resist that) which features a roller skating derby video and a slightly rockier sound, confirming what we suggested in our Bushstock review (here) about Paramore and substitute singers.
