Kerrie Masters - "One" EP

A few weeks ago, we had a lovely evening at the launch of Kerrie Master's debut EP “One”, and since then we've been spinning it pretty regularly here at Amp Session Towers, so we thought we'd let you know what we think!

It's been quite some 12 months or so for Kerrie, the singer/songwriter from Colchester, winning a talent show in Essex and even performing at Wembley Arena, but it's debut EP “One” which is the chocolate sprinkles on the icing on the cake.

Kerrie's acoustic, laid back sound resonates through each track and creates a real toe tapping vibe, trust me, the big toe on my right foot aches from tapping along to every single track.

Songs like “That's What You Said” and “Justified” have the feeling of a break up, but not of sorrow, just of disappointment. We've all experienced that feeling of “That's it?” but walking away thinking, “Thank God that's over”, a message which shines through on these tracks.

However, it's "Poppyfields" that stands out as a very personal track. You get the feeling Kerrie's speaking from the heart here about her breaking through and getting out of the nine to five job and the daily, even weekly routine, that lacks the excitement that only comes with performing. 

“One” is easy listening at it's best, this is an EP that you can throw on and just chill out to, it's the sort of thing you can listen to with a date, and even the sort of thing you can put on at Sunday lunch with your mum. Trust me, I did!

I'm a big fan of the EP, it's a collection of well put together tracks, that come together to create one fantastic EP. We love it here at The Amp Session and recommend you pick up a copy, or if you fancy seeing Kerrie Masters live, you can check out her tour dates on her website.
