Pick of the Week 3 - Home by Gabrielle Aplin
This is an absolute cracker. On first listen it sounds like the standard Laura Marling style ballad, but listen again and you're hooked. The song readily embeds itself in your subconscious and you'll find yourself singing it at inappropriate times and not quite knowing where it came from or who sings it. Check out her website (http://gabrielleaplin.co.uk/) for some limited information on her and unusual covers of Teenage Dirtbag, Teen Spirit, Chop Suey and Killing the Name! She looks like the type to release a corker of a first album and become the first artist we've championed on Into the Valley who will actually have some success and probably win the Mercury Prize. Fingers crossed for her anyway, but don't hold your breath. You heard it here first though!
