Wet Wings Debut EP ‘Skin to Soil’ Out Now!


Lucy and Darian are Wet Wings, the coed duo from New Zealand who recently released Skin to Soil, their six-song EP on a limited-edition cassette tape through Infinity Tapes.

“Sleep Tight” is an eerie and morbid lullaby as Lucy sings “Sleep tight, my baby but don’t forget to wake up, my baby.” The cello that makes an appearance halfway through the song is gorgeous and emotional, introducing Lucy’s crooning that carries the track to its finish.

“Keep it Together” is a complex blend of electronics, trumpet and piano. There are a lot of different components going on in this song, but they all work wonderfully on their own and with each other.

“Whisper Always” has odd, competing vocals between Lucy and Darian. The song itself sounds like water and awakens the desire to go night swimming.

Each band mate has a calming, even therapeutic voice with Darian’s having a Jose Gonzales quality and Lucy’s sounding like it belongs in an esteemed chorus group. Their moody, dream pop effect is perfect for late night cuddling.
