The Indigo Road
Simple / Goodbye To You
self-released
This debut single by Indigo Road features vocals by Heidi Jo Hines, daughter of former Wings guitarist Denny Laine. Mark Herbert wants to use guest singers
on all his songs and on this evidence that seems good.
"Simple" is just what it says and Hines' vocals really suit it with their warmth and sincerity. "Goodbye To You" about a love that's ended is the first
song's darker flipside. It's electric where the first song is acoustic and bitter where that one is sweet. Hines vocals are biting where they were soft before.
It's a well-thought out move that really works. It'll be fun to see where Indigo Road head next.
