The Shimmer are a brother and sister combination from The Isle Of Sheppy! Now I had to google that, and here are some facts about what sounds like a wonderful place.

It is off the coast of Kent, which when I think about it isn't that far, but for some reason I assumed it was nearer the Faroe Islands.

If you wanted to call the Isle Of Sheppy, you would use the area code prefix 01795

I think that's enough about The Isle Of Sheppy, what about The Shimmer. Well they craft perfect esoteric pop songs bristling with a healthy dose of dark emotive atmospherics, he copied and pasted, and also recorded their album in a Napoleon Fort. I was pleasantly surprised when I heard them, as my experience with brother and sister acts has been mixed, from Slow Club, which I liked to......erm Michael & Janet Jackson's Scream. No that was $7 million that could have been better spent.

Single out in the next 2 months, on Hit Club Records, who do Egyptian Hip Hop so very very trendy, far too trendy for me.
