Cindytalk

Cindytalk was the alias of one-man band Gordon Sharp, a Scottish performer who first emerged in 1981 as the Freeze, recording a John Peel session under that name. More prominent was his appearance on This Mortal Coil's 1983 debut EP, Song for the Siren; he also contibuted vocals to the project's 1984 full-length It'll End in Tears. At about the same time Sharp began working as Cindytalk, a solo vehicle aided by a variety of studio musicians. After debuting with the dark industrial effort Camouflage Heart, Cindytalk fell silent for a number of years, finally resurfacing in 1988 with the ambient In This World. The atmospheric The Wind Is Strong followed in 1990, while Wappinschaw appeared in 1995.
