Another gem from tastemaker compilation Slow Dance '24, 'Matchstick' is the brooding new offering from fresh face on the London scene KITTY. Opening to an intimate yet chilly atmosphere, roomy piano plonks linger beneath KITTY's raspy vocals as she contemplates an age-old dilemma. She explains via Instagram, "it is a simple song about how if u say something u get into shit, if u don’t you still get into shit - so anyway always call out shitty behaviour cos either way you’re gonna get into shit." Demonstrating confidence and vulnerability in equal measure, 'Matchstick' is a time and and affecting piece that earmarks the flourishing musician, vocalist and songwriter as one to keep an eye on for sure. -Holly Mullineaux
