Contemporary storytelling complete with fearless vulnerability and vocal character combined – Sid Dorey masters the freedom of creative writing, with the deeply evocative and artistically unique EP Drama In Doses.
Lyrically clever in terms of everything from the title and concept to the individual statements, references and revelations of each song, Drama In Doses showcases the distinct voice of Sid Dorey in both artsitry and tone. The EP’s title-track marks a fine stating point, laying down a piano-led and increasingly passionate folk-pop arrangement loaded with modern day struggles that feel both personal and accessible.
We’re somewhere between the likes of Cavetown and Olivia Rodrigo – long-form verses and equal parts delicacy and weight depending on the changing stages of each story. The project is honest and versatile enough to hold attention, presenting a connection that lasts and which will no doubt stand the test of time thanks to both the realness of Dorey’s writing and the clear talent and audience awareness of the surrounding performances and productions.
It’s impressive, refreshing, interesting, and furthermore is both a pleasure and a thought provoking comfort to listen to. Defiantly one to watch this year.
