/Indie folk, Singer-songwriter, Folk indie, Dream folk, Post-pop/

Comment: EFTB is a Cologne-based one-woman-act, headed by Julia Kotowski (also known as The Smallest Bones). Her 4-track issue hinges on wondrous vocal hovers and lonely piano chords embellished with some glockenspiel fringes, uncanny semi-orchestrations and concrete sounds got from the streets in Istanbul, Turkey which together used to result in essentially intimate, fragile dream pop/folk-ish appearances. Additionally, Way Out involves a teasing motif on a bouncy, piano-based flow. Great work by any senses.
