Soak is Bridie Monds-Watson, a singer-songwriter from Derry who plays guitar and sings, and whose stage name mashes together two words that sum up the sound: soul and folk. The debut album, Before We Forgot How to Dream, came out on Rough Trade in May 2015, and "Sea Creatures" shows off that voice, soft and a little wary, over guitar lines that hang in the air like breath on a cold window.
The Guardian heard in it a sharp picture of adolescent overthinking, and that's the charm: songs that take the big, private questions of being young completely seriously without ever getting melodramatic about them.
Grim Town followed in 2019, and "Deja Vu" keeps that close-up, conversational feel front and center.
