I’ll be frank- I miss Tilly & The Wall. There is nothing more pleasing to me than taking the art of tap dance and using it as the primary percussion instrument in pop music. Sandra Kluge is the tap dancer/vocalist that’s filling the void right now. Although Tilly gave us indie and folk rock accompanied by tap, Kluge is squarely rooted in the jazz tradition, creating a sound that may be a bit more pure but still very inventive. “Misty Rose” is a great song, with layers of beauty propelled by the tap rhythms.
“Misty Rose” can be found in all the usual places. I can’t wait for more from Sandra Kluge!
