"Wearing Devine" hovers in the fog like a light just out of reach. Tantalizing, seductive, but slightly obscured. It has a touch of Lee Hazelwood, Patsy Cline and other American '60s artists, but then warped through a woozy, psychedelic filter that shades the song in darker tones. It is the work of New Zealand singer songwriter Ben Woods, assisted here by Lucy Hunter (of Opposite Sex) and Marlon Williams, and is the second single taken from his upcoming album Dispeller. And if this is the sort of artistry that Ben delivers on the album, we are getting in line.
Dispeller is out July 15 via Meritorio (Europe/UK), Melted Ice Cream (NZ), and Shrimper (USA)
