New release announced!
(Since it is late and we have a whole weekend of recording that starts tomorrow, we will just recap this from our labels site...)
Following on from their sophomore LP, ‘Solace In Sore Hands’ and coinciding with their third European Tour, Amandine release two exclusive tracks that narrowly missed inclusion on the second album.
This digital only release is to be accompanied by a clutch of European dates in March.
Continuing with the characteristic bitter-sweet melodies and poignant lyrics on ‘Solace…’ both tracks lean towards minimalist, swedish folk music with an added delicate swagger and an almost child-like lullaby that can be heard especially throughout ‘Let The Morning Ignite’. ‘Silence…’ builds and sways drunkenly into a warm crescendo that highlights the bands skill at crafting country-inspired songs, that whilst maintaining a gentle sensitivity, never lose their subtle strength of melody.
