Something New #11 - Sid Batham

Something New #11 - Sid Batham

Nothing Wrong With Pop is on holiday, but even that isn't enough to stop us sharing today's artist with you all - Sid Batham is an incredible slice of funk-tinged mellow, moody, slinky-pop whose sound is so well-crafted and cleverly produced it's a shock to find out this isn't his third album.


He's easy on the eye too. Which helps.

Sid's vocals are adventurous without losing their way, smooth with a hint of gravel, like a Frappuccino with crunchy bits of caramel hidden amongst the creaminess (calm down) - and he's going to be all over the place really soon, working with some super hot producers and giving off enough heat to make everyone stand up and take a sniff.

Check out his EP on soundcloud. Honestly, it's unnaturally good. 


If this is the beginning of Sid's career, the ending is going to be in some sort of mansion built on a foundation of dollar bills. Get on the boat before it sails to hype-land so you can say, as always, "I was totally into that before he was famous".

Check him out on Facebook and Twitter, and more importantly listen to everything on his Soundcloud, preferably while lying in a hot bath and drinking champagne with strawberries.
