This year's Track Of The Year goes to Marika Hackman with her song 'Bath Is Black'. The track originally appeared on her mini album 'That Iron Taste', with our attention being drawn to an acoustic version which appeared with a series of others in support of that release.
Here's a little bit of what we said about the track when we reviewed it way back when in January.
"Bath Is Black is wonderfully refreshing in what can sometimes
be a stale folk genre. Starting with some delightful guitar finger
picking, its Marika's vocals and poignant lyrics which really stand out
here. Her voice has a delicate yet somehow knowing quality which belies
her tender years, and you can't help but get drawn into her spell of
weaving guitar and floating vocals with the song even changing tempo mid
track almost seamlessly."
