Following an appearance in the Amnesty Book Shop in Brighton, Southampton alt-folkers Haunted Stereo contributed a track to raise money for Amnesty International. ‘Cross the Sea’ will also appear on an EP in November but is well worth downloading now, first because it’s for Amnesty and second because it’s the sound of a band hitting their stride with a gloriously melancholic tale, inspired by Julia Franck’s novel ‘The Blind Side of the Heart’, full of an Arcade Fire-style grandeur that’s rich with soaring violins and sonorous piano. Excellent on every level.
