Has it really been two years since we last heard from Miss Maguire? It would appear so, but for those who follow her elsewhere, they’ll know that she’s been sneaking tracks out for folks to hear. So what is this self-titled EP?

Well, in simple terms, it’s 4 tracks comprising of 2 new tracks (Paper Thin  & Whenever You Want It) & 2 covers (Black Coffee by Sarah Vaughn & The Last Time I Saw Richard by Joni Mitchell). The tracks feel that they are recorded in a way that allows that Maguire’s voice to simply shine through, stripped back but giving the listener plenty of room to imagine what the tracks may sound like if given all the bells & whistles.

This self-titled EP may be an indication of where Maguire’s (in some cases, long awaited) next album may be headed. But time will tell and in the meantime, hopefully this will tide fans over.

Rating: 4/5
