Pure Bathing Culture, “Wildest Moments” (Jessie Ware Cover)
It’s a tall order to cover Jessie Ware’s biggest song, and Pure Bathing Culture stepped up. Like their great Moon Tides EP, this track has a moonlit, prom-deep-beneath-the-ocean feel; singer Sarah Vesprille doesn’t try to belt like Jessie, but allows the song to float nicely on Pure Bathing Culture’s decade-confounding miasma, a sort of folk/coke/Cocteau Twins/Don Henley vibe that is never quite ironic but always has a twinkle in its eye.
