Buffablog Shares Izzy Savides’ “Prison In The Suburbs”

Buffablog likes “Prison In The Suburbs,” one of the standout tracks on Izzy Savides’ new EP Potato World, which is at radio now. “Her boundless creativity, versatile talents for instruments, and soul-baring songwriting is on display on the newly released single, ‘Prison in the Suburbs.’ Izzy opens with a melody that stems from Bossa Nova hit ‘Girl from Ipanema,’ a cultural touchstone that comes from the nightlife of 50’s Rio De Janeiro, but utterly transforms the ubiquitous piece into a sonic tour de force that bends, layers, and cracks open with cathartic wonder. Izzy’s elastic bass grooves with a stilted samba rhythm as her shape-shifting fretwork dazzles, culminating in a incendiary guitar solo that leads into a stunning climatic refrain. Fans of Deerhoof, At the Drive-In, and Billie Eilish could find Savides’ music to be a new obsession.”
