Hello darling – "From me to you"
-The folk duo harmonies are beautiful on this track. Something about the dance between acoustic guitar and piano works really well here. The combination of these different elements results in a folk sound that I really appreciate. They remind me a bit of a band called Jus Post Bellum that I loved when I started blogging. The idyllic harmonies will surely find a lot of support from the folk fans on our site.
Stephen Babcock – "Jessica"
– This track has an accessible energy that definitely stands out in the folk scene. I want to say that Babcock's style feels like sitting in a coffee shop with an old friend just to chat. The harmonies in the chorus really remind me of Simon and Garfunkel. The combination of thoughtful, chatty lyrics and an accessible sincere composition results in a track that for me really connects. I hope others find Babcock's expressive and unadulterated style as enjoyable as I do. It is a gem.
Sophia Corinne – "Fraud"
-If you are looking for some ornate folk music, you should consider Sophia Corinne. The acoustic work is compelling, but the singing is absolutely FASCINATING. There is a mysterious energy amplified by the moody vocal style that really resonates on this track. In a world with a lot of twee-influenced folk music, it's nice to have a piece of music that can be both so unsettling and so compelling at the same time. It's definitely one for our artsy folk playlist.
