Live Review: Izzy Bizu ‘Adam & Eve’

After dropping the audio for her single ‘Adam & Eve’ at the beginning of last month, Londoner IZZY BIZU has just finished up the visuals to go with it.

Shot on a vintage style camera, the clip runs like a moving series of Instagram posts which would be smugly captioned ‘wish you were here? #soznotsoz’.

The video follows Bizu on her sun-soaked travels, with additional animations scribbled on top in white marker, as she skate boards down alleyways, picks dandelions in fields and lounges around in the back of campervans.

The 20-year old Brit takes a simplistic approach to music making, starting with an acoustic guitar or piano then adding beats on top. She says that no matter what you put on top, if the basics work then the song works. On ‘Adam & Eve’ she’s added a whole lot of drums, horns, strings, a warm bass line and busy beats to create a lively, youthful and modern soul number.

With lyrics that jubilantly sing about how ‘your pioson’s taking over me, you give me sweet relief and I want it’, the sound and video are evidently all about a care free love – almost as care-free as her untamed hair style.

‘Adam & Eve’ is out now on Epic Records. Check out the video below.
