scout niblett

English born Emma Lousie Niblett or better known as "Scout" Niblett, (she derived the name from Harper Lee's 1960 novel 'To Kill a Mockingbird'), has one mean delivery. It's minmal and highly effective. Many of her songs consisting merely of vocals accompanied by either drums or guitar, which she primarily plays herself.
"Her newest record "It’s Up to Emma" is powerful and manic. Spartan drum and guitar parts serve to accent raw vocals that sound backed-in-a-corner furious. “Gun” is one of the best vengeful spurned-woman songs I’ve heard,"
Amy Seidenwurm. BOING BOING

She's half way into a tour of the States at the moment. This track of hers is an absolute killer. Understated and expressive she delivers a blow that says you do not double deal with this woman.
Here's the track "Gun". Part of the excellent Sound It Out free song download at Soundcloud. Click 'Download' on the widget below and get your MP3.
