Rarely Heard: Scout Niblett - Nevada



"Scout Niblett is Nottingham, England's answer to all the brash, intelligent, and honest female songwriters who emerged from America during the early 21st century." (allmusic.com) And she's one of my absolute favourites. You may call her her a songwriter - in the sense that she's created her own musical world, hardly comparable to anyone else. Usually it's just her and her guitar and an occasional drummer, whereas she'll just play the drums herself. And you may call her music spartan, but it's intense, often mesmerizing - and heavy, I love her concerts. I had a hard time picking a song, since I enjoy them all, so I'll be occasionally introducing more.
