Racing The Storm is an album that quietly seeps into your consciousness, a collection of charming chamber pop confections that is impossible to resist.
It works at least as well on this collection of new originals.
Predictable, perhaps, to mention Torrini's compatriot Bjork. ... Ultimately, though, RTS charts its own path.
