Having received praise from NME and The Forty-Five, Nieve Ella has garnered attention for good reason. Her releases consistently demonstrate brilliance.
Following the success of her first EP ‘Young and Naive’, fans eagerly anticipated her next body of work. Bridging the gap between the two projects were some exceptional singles featured on ‘Lifetime Of Wanting’.
The EP opens with ‘Big House’, a beautifully honest track where Ella passionately expresses her emotions in a stark manner. Her vocal performance reflects this honesty, accompanied by a brilliant band display that creates a full and captivating sound.
The next two tracks, ‘His Sofa’ and ‘Your Room’, were also released as singles prior to the EP. ‘His Sofa’ is breathtaking, building up to a powerful chorus where Ella declares, “Don’t say that it’s over, I’ve made up my mind.” It’s no surprise that the track has gained popularity both at live performances and on streaming platforms.
‘Your Room’, the latest single and final preview before the full EP release, is perfect. It showcases Ella’s strength as an artist with a catchy chorus that maintains its honesty and quality. It’s a song that will undoubtedly captivate crowds for the foreseeable future.
The latter part of the EP introduces new material, starting with ‘Car Park’. Ella describes the track as an acknowledgment that relationships require effort from both sides, but having someone who loves and supports you despite your flaws makes it worthwhile. The band’s brilliant performance complements the theme, resulting in an outstanding track.
The title song, ‘Lifetime Of Wanting’, concludes the EP with a slower, stripped-back approach centered around a solitary guitar and Ella’s beautifully distinctive vocals. The track evokes raw emotions as Ella sings about someone who is ‘Everything I wanted’. The instrumentation gradually builds up before returning to the stripped-back vibes of the opening, creating a beautiful and impactful ending.
In summary, Nieve Ella’s second EP, ‘Lifetime Of Wanting’, is a stunning display of vocal power and raw emotions. She consistently delivers excellence and is destined for great success.
