Lou Trigg, and Some Flowers

Uplifting and sentimental, Flowers is the new song by Chippenham singer-songwriter Lou Trigg very worthy of your attention and playlist. A chorale delicacy, it trickles along sublimely, like staring thoughtfully through a rain-drenched window, nice and cosy, perhaps with a hand painted chipped-mug of lukewarm but earthy tea.……

Lou is a new one on us here at Devizine, and a welcomed blessing, explaining the idea for Flowers is โ€œabout loving someone in a long-distance relationship. Like my other songs, itโ€™s very honest and close to my heart.โ€ Which is precisely the way it comes across, if only one good reason to give it a listen.

Long distance relationships, though, do they ever work out, I mean, really? Any parallels from my own life I reminisce as infatuations only! But itโ€™s the thought is, here, more than anything; the fervency of passion is expressed exquisitely through Louโ€™s hauntingly acute vocals. There’s a touch of folk, reminding me of Daisy Chapman, somewhat, but this euphoric orchestral ambience is the kingpin.

Thereโ€™s a further five angelic and orchestrally ambient ballads up on Spotify ranging from 2019, unsure if theyโ€™ve all been bought to life by Martin Spencer of Potterneโ€™s Badger Set, but Flowers has, and itโ€™s a little piece of gorgeous.
