Songs of the year, number 4: Harkin - Dial It In


Leeds finest Katie Harkin took time out from her duties in the Sleater-Kinney touring lineup to release her debut solo album in early 2020. An impeccable slice of indie rock as exemplified by the crisp, taut perfection of 'Dial It In' and the surging drama of lead single 'Nothing The Night Can't Change' (it was a very close choice between the two for this list...), she looked set for a great year... I think she did manage to get some solo dates in before the live music world closed, but it can't have been many. At least she's left us with the record though, and the quiet determination and shimmering steeliness of 'Dial It In'.
