We already had Finnish artist Ringa Manner on our radar a while ago and now we finally had the chance of experiencing her one-girl-band THE HEARING live on the stage which was a truly joyful moment during the event. Since the hypnotic dreampop of her alter ego is based on the concept of loops and repetition the crafted young lady avoids familiar structures and is more interested in sucking her listeners into her ghostly little world. With a stunning vocal performance in finest KATE BUSH tradition on top of it you really can’t argue against her.
