Artist: JODIE LANGFORD Who: A swirling wordsmith from the Hull / East Yorkshire area.
A shining light that speaks the truth about young people and
their feelings.
“A stream of consciousness monologue that expresses all those ‘in the
moment’ thoughts and feelings which make us human – elements that
have been sorely missed throughout the last 18 months of lockdowns
and social restriction.”
Turn Up The Volume: I’m pretty sure Happy Mondays’ 24-hour party
animal Shaun Ryder would have needed psychiatric help if that awful
parasite Covid-19 had struck back in the Madchester heydays. I’m also
pretty sure million of youngsters around the world had/have mental
problems as they saw/sees their glorious once-in-a-lifetime years going
down the lockdown drain.
Langford reflects these dreadful freedom-restricting sentiments verbally
well in her fresh word rap waterfall jam. An intoxicating and groovetastic
house stomper making you long even more to freak out in a cool club.
But, wait, there shines a dancing light at the end of the discotheque tunnel.
Partying is back, still restricted due to safety rules, but finally the liberating
lets-party-our-heads-off sensation is back for all hungry juveniles (and, why not,
their older bothers and sisters too). Watch your back Mike Skinner, your female
alter-ego is in town.
