Sixpeopleaway is the musical project of Glasgow singer/songwriter Alistair Merrick. An inchoate union of singer/songwriter acoustics and synthetic beats, there are hints of punk influence amongst a sound that, mostly, is reminiscent of Air and José González. Sometimes, the beats are allowed to take over. At others, the juxtaposition of acoustics and electronics is a little forced and the true heart of the music is obscured. Held together through their talent for melody, Sixpeopleaway, nonetheless, have created a novel twist on the old singer/songwriter formula that, with just a little time, could be cultivated into something much more natural. [Neil Ferguson]
