Sorry so late, but it’s still Monday here in the U.S. so I have to sneak in my music recommendation for the week…This Week it’s from a group called Snowpoet, a band from the UK which blends Jazz Vocal, Poetry, Folk and a few other genres to great effect. This is their second album, but the first i’ve heard from them. It’s a great project, short but sweet. Check it out!
From Edition Records:
Thought You Knew is the second album from Snowpoet, the London based band led by the writing duo of Jazz FM Vocalist of the Year (2016) Lauren Kinsella and multi-instrumentalist Chris Hyson featuring Josh Arcoleo on saxophone, Nick Costley-White on guitar, Matt Robinson on piano and Dave Hamblett on drums. Born out of deep a musical friendship and a mutual understanding, their acclaimed eponymous debut Snowpoet won rave reviews and a devoted audience for their compelling sound, drawing comparisons with Björk. Thought You Knew takes their musical collaboration and sound to the next level, blending sweet hook laden vocal lines with warm and lush arrangements. This music is infectious, delicate and tasteful. With a new home at Edition Records, they are set to reach new heights in profile confirming their reputation as one of the most innovative and creative new bands in the UK today.
I’m an audio writer who started as a young audio salesman/consumer electronics professional back in the late 90s. That’s where I discovered the magic of 2-Channel sound. My thirst for great sound has led me on a delightful music quest that continues today.
