Vicki
Manser comes to us via the world of musical theatre where she has appeared in
the West End and touring shows. This is
quite evident when you listen to her debut single Pick Me Up, as her
voice shows beautiful control and range as the song progresses.
The
song opens with just an acoustic guitar with a hint of mandolin and then comes
Vicki’s soft, almost breathy voice.
Throughout, the instrumentation – adding in drums and electric guitar –
gently supports and highlights the vocal so that your full attention is on the
words and sound of the voice, the pleading for help from someone who is
experiencing personal trouble and doubt and is looking to that one person who
can “Pick Me Up”
It
is a country inspired song, although more toward that folk end of the spectrum,
and is a co-write by Tim Prottey-Jones, Demi Marriner and Dan Weller, very well
known names in UK Country, and Vicki herself cites the influence of family in
her love of Country Music and Bluegrass
Country and Bluegrass has always played such a big part in my life and I am so excited to release my debut single. UK Country music is forever blossoming and this is just the start for me, so expect a lot more new music to come from me!
Well
Vicki, if this is your first single we can’t wait to see what else you do!
Pick Me Up, the debut single from Vicki Manser is available on all major platforms from 12 June
