PINS - Piano Versions 'Set Me Off'
In celebration of Record Store Day 2021 PINS are set to release ‘Piano Versions’ EP on limited edition orange splatter vinyl.
Working together with award winning composer and pianist Sergey Kolosov PINS have reimagined four tracks from their album ‘Hot Slick.’ Beautiful vocal harmonies alongside Sergey's dramatic and ethereal piano style have brought out a side rarely heard in the groups sound. In doing so they have created a more intimate, sparse and cinematic EP.
"I imagined being lay across a piano in a demure dress whilst singing the songs for this piano EP. It was the midst of lockdown and making this record helped stave off the loneliness. Hearing the songs played on the piano for the first time was a delight, Sergey brought out elements of the songs that I didn’t even know were there! The whole thing was recorded remotely, I laid my vocals on top of the piano then Ailis added her backing singing then finally Lois filled in the gaps with guitar.. it was like passing around one of those concertina drawings where one person does the head and the next does the body etc.. it was a fun way to work, not really knowing how it would change until the next draft pinged into my inbox.” Faith Vern
