After impressing with retro-pop gem “I Wonder” in April, “Chaucer” is another melodic success from Micky Blouse, hailing from Sheffield, England. “Chaucer” features a more swirling guitar presence, in addition to Micky’s familiar pop-friendly vocal punch. The “kinda funny,” chorus and the vocal punch at 01:33 especially succeed, enticing replays and reminding of Smith Westerns. I’m looking forward to more from this act, especially with an EP set to release in the coming months.
