Every so often you discover a new artist with such a distinctive sound that the world seems to stop around you to pay attention. Leah Belle Faser is one such artist, an upcoming singer whose vocal cadence and emotive delivery give her singing a resonance and nuanced insight that can't be faked. Her debut album, Crossing Hermi's Bridge, has already won critical plaudits and she is now ready to embrace the most wonderful time of the year via her brand new single, I Wonder What You Got For Me. With jingling percussion, chiming keyboards and sumptuous guitar, Leah is immersed in a vibrant score which conjures up memories of the best Spector Christmas songs. She sings the vivid, descriptive words in a way which paints pictures of winter wonderlands and intimate encounters whilst she ponders whether her beau put as much thought into gift buying as she did. And therein lies the beauty of Leah's voice - she tells a thousand stories with the emotion she pours into each word. You get a tangible sense of her child-like wonder for the holidays and the joy she gets from others seeing the gifts she has bought; equally, you feel her disappointment when the thoughtfulness is returned, burned from birthdays and holidays before. It is her indomitable feeling of hope and optimism that makes this a charming, melodic and cathartic sing-along; a new Christmas favourite to add to your seasonal playlist year in, year out. Gorgeous.
