Wonderland // Introduction To Wonderland EP

Introduction to Wonderland - EPDownload @ Amazon.co.uk | Download @ Play.com

Wonderland is the most recent girl group on the music scene, managed by Louis Walsh and Westlife member Kian Egan. Their first offering to the music world, in the form of a Introduction to EP, is the song Not A Long Song.

It probably not something that you might expect from a debut single. It's a very laid back melody with a slight rock edge. Fortunately, the song lends itself to providing a base to showcase each of the girls vocals individually and as a group.

As for the rest of the EP, the tracks are all live acoustics including a cover of the recent Grammy winning Need You Now (originally by Lady Antebellum), possibly giving the listener a better chance to hear the girls vocals both individually and as a group.

The country/rock/pop sound separates them from what is out there at the moment with a natural sound to their music, rather than the electro-pop that seems to be drowning the music scene at the moment. With upcoming support slots with Boyzone and Westlife on their UK tours, they are likely to get quite a bit of attention meaning that they shouldn't slip under the radar. So long as they keep their currently unique sound, they should do well. One to watch.

Rating: 4.5/5
