Coming out from Melbourne in Australia is singer-songwriter Christine Tarquinio with her deep and brooding new single, "If I Could". Right off the bat "If I Could" works into your head like a classic pop ear-worm, with the piano keys giving me big flashbacks of the time I discovered the likes of Keane and Air Traffic.
A piano-driven pop tune with sweeping synths and strong vocal melodies.
Speaking of her career so far in music Christine mentions - "Music has been my stress relief, and it always clears my mind and helps me relax and take a step back to reassess my situation. Songwriting helps me process what is going on for me and I love to share that with a wider audience as I hope they can relate to my music."
Vocally Christine will grip you and turn you into a fan well before the end of the first minute, and by the 50-second mark the track will burst into an indie-rock affair with some sweeping synths, atmospheric vocal melodies and a driving drumbeat that then continues on deep into the song.
The tempo keeps on driving the track forward and as we delved deeper into it we found ourselves looking into her back catalogue ready to queue up some more hidden gems.
