Donna Blue: Inbetween EP

After releasing two self-titled 3-track EP's Dutch retro-pop duo Donna Blue are playing it a little longer with Inbetween, a collection of five songs. The two preceding singles, the haunting story of a former lover turned stalker Billy and the Henry James inspired Desert Lake already hinted at s slighter darkr mood. Danique van Kesteren and Bart van Dalen have come out of their bubble to look at the world and they found there is trouble in Paradis (sung in French).

Sadness and loneliness has found their way into their music, but they have retained the lush arrangements and soft-spoken vocal. It makes the underlying message even more gripping. The mixed emotions reach a peak in the title track, captured in a mix of surf, country and doo-wop.
