néomí

Another very talented singer from The Netherlands is néomí (Neomi Speelman). Earlier this year she released 'After', a beautiful spheric indiefolk album about being young and growing old. And so in a way, her new song is about that too. It's not necessarily intended as a Christmas track, although it does have that specific atmosphere, but without ringing bells and all that stuff.
She's open about her granddad suffering from Alzheimer in 'Garden', a slightly sad but loving song with a very personal video. And on Christmas Eve, even though he probably has no idea, she will tell him again how much he loves her grandmother. A beautiful, moving and honest track that overflows with love.
