Label: Saddest Factory
Released: 20th May 2022
If you listen to Charlie Hickey speak, you’ll quickly learn of his love of some of the iconic alternative singer-songwriters.
While some of that adoration might be cast upon his label boss Phoebe Bridgers, Elliott Smith’s influence is audible in the best possible way on debut album ‘Nervous At Night’.
At times big, at others delicately intimate, it’s all tied together by Charlie’s ability to distil experiences down to perfect moments. An uncommon trait that makes this first taster both identifiable and essential listening.
