Nikki’s Wives – Real Girl
After releasing their debut EP Motor Court in last year, alternative pop trio Nikki’s Wives are working hard to make 2019 the year of their break-through. With their single Lemonade, they were off to a good start, but the follow-up track Real Girl is even better.
Starting off lovely with the sound of a music box, it gains energy once a slow, driving drum and guitar set in. Lyrically, it takes a biting and critical approach to stereotypical ideas of what it takes to be a ‘real girl’.
A song that crawls under your skin.
