Today I'm ill so I apologise in advance for this pretty short and quick blog, especially when the band deserve so much more, I have a severe dose of man-flu (man-flu comes in no other form but severe) and I've been listening to The Staves and their beautiful blend of acoustic folk-pop whilst lying in bed watching the cricket (let's face it the gorgeous vocals of three lovely ladies is far more appealing than hearing the voice of David Gower).
It's accurate to say that they've been soothing my painful bones and aching head, this three piece from London / Watford (read local band for me) is a perfect remedy, With lovely vocals and gorgeous harmonies "Mexico" is simply wonderful. The girls vocals complement each other perfect. Genteel meandering melodies, intricate acoustic guitar strumming and piano. Beautiful. Similar adjectives can be said about "Facing West" too.
The girls have been playing quite a few summer festivals ending at End of the Road in a few weeks time. You can order a physical copy of their 'Facing West EP' via their facebook, listen below:
