"In an ever so quiet and subtle way folk music has been growing in popularity, casting off old negative associations, branching out into new directions and in some cases crossing over into the mainstream. Brody and Quint are another fine addition to this movement, actually a three piece, they create simple songs - male and female vocals, acoustic guitar and cello - which are rich, melancholic and graceful. With the instruments used the arrangements are sparse but compelling and the cello gives a haunting edge to the songs. Graceful yet powerful stuff that should melt the hardest of hearts." Vibrations Magazine "the sounds they create from acoustic guitars, featherlight vocals and mournful strings are ripped straight from the Book of Revelation: tales of pain, despair, hope and redemption ... a songbook to die for" Logo Magazine "Brit folk at its finest... effortless elegance when the duo merge vocals with simple guitar and haunting strings... divine." South of Mainstream "This English trio make beautifully laid back tunes full of interesting lyrics, languid strings and delicate vocals... Songs like Spinning Drum display a lyrical virtuosity that Rufus Wainwright would be proud of.." MusicOMH "a lovingly crafted, compellingly understated Alt.-folk-pop sound ... honest and intimate to such a degree that few parallels can be drawn ... essential listening." Kid Juxta "ethereal and laid back ... Rosemary and Mark in this polished debut give off a chemistry that will make you think they have been working together for years" Do Something Pretty "Guitar and twin vocals moulded perfectly around space. His vocal: a touch of Thom Yorke. Her vocal: a touch of class." Splendid ezine |
