Since the sky poured it's heart out yesterday afternoon and night I decided to grab a track from the inbox that dealt with water. =o)
Seabear released their debut album,
The Ghost That Carried Us Away, on September 9, 2007.
Morr Music, their lovely label, says the album covers topics of "nature, mortality and love."
The group is from Iceland and they have an eclectic sound. Guitar, piano, violin, harmonica, lapsteel; you name it and you'll probably hear it floating around in their tracks. They like the LoFi feel (much to my dismay) so their album is reminiscent of the reduced stereo recordings of the '60s. I'm all for vintage, but when it comes to sound I'm just not in to the whole LoFi quality.
Take a listen:Seabear - "
I Sing I Swim" (mp3)
