She Keeps Bees - Eight Houses FLAC download

The popkenner already know that Brooklyn is a hotbed of the better alternative music. In addition to well-known groups (Vampire Weekend, Yeasayer) there is still plenty of unknown talent, such as the duo She Keeps Bees. In contrast to the other, often what She Keeps Blues sounds contrived Brooklyn groups striking traditional and earthy. That is mainly to front wife Jessica Larrabee who with her penetrating blues voice a hearty stamp press on the sound of the group. ' She has more soul in her finger than most singers from our scene have in their whole body ' says fellow singer Sharon van Etten about Larrabee, but that voice is not the only attraction on this album. She Keeps Bees know in every issue to generate tension, sometimes by a bumbling rocking guitar riff (as in Both Sides) but more often choose the group for more subtle means. Best price on the number itself that crystallizes from Breezy. With Eight Houses has She Keeps Bees an album in hands that they could be the breakthrough might force to a wider audience.
