Nick and Liesl - Feather (Album)
WOW! That’s how I felt when I started this review, and that’s definitely how Feather will leave you feeling. Feather is the alternative/folk duo Nick and Liesl's debut album.
I instantly fell in love with their music, as it's heavily influenced by the alternative/folk scene in my home town. I loved their vibe and the earthy feeling you get from the get go.
Nick and Liesl have come a long way since 2008, when they released their debut EP Wyong River. The whole album shows a range of stripped back folk, alternative, pop and soul genres, as well as a great range of vocal capabilities for these two talented artists.
"Sing Sing" is a demonstration of perfect harmonies and a laid back folkie vibe. The first track off the album, "Most Of My Life", shows the lyrical genius of the pair, as well as some beautiful harmonies with stripped back folk tunes and an earthy upbeat tempo.
The guitar work and the vocal harmonies are what I fell in love with when listening to this album for the first time, and I can tell you, Feather is all I have been listening to for quite some time, the easy listening qualities and calming vocals are what makes them a great duo. Get out there and see these guys live, I know I will be when they are touring Victoria.
