Imagine you're wandering home through an enchanted forest, the morning after the best secret rave of your life, gently buzzing and convinced that the coming glow of the sunrise contains the secrets of the universe.
From behind the trunk of a particularly blossom-covered tree comes a girl who might be a hazy apparition of Mazzy Star, the slowed-down ghost of Kirsty MacColl or just a new, dreamy summer pop songstress you've never encountered before.
She dances round you, blissed out and harmonious with the grass beneath her toes and the clear sky above you, and as you continue to listen, you realise exactly where you've heard this sound before: not just in your nu-folk dreams, but on your complete collection of Concretes records for Taken By Trees is, in fact, Victoria Bergsman's new project and it is she who has hijacked you for this special performance. Lucky, lucky you.
