Emily Jane White - Dagger
Published Tuesday, 15th January, 2008 at 3:48 PM
San Francisco singer/songwriter Emily Jane White has been around for a few years now, but she only released her debut album Dark Undercoat late in 2007.
Her blend of dark, chamber folk-rock and wistful vocals has seen a few (impressive) comparisons - namely Chan Marshall (Cat Power) and PJ Harvey.
In fairness both of these can be heard within Dagger, the next single from Dark Undercoat and the video is as laid-bare as the minimalist, chiming guitars of the song. Filmed in slow-motion, we see haunting footage of White walking the late night streets carrying a mannequin.
