Another Fresh Emily Hines Track

Back in February, we brought you news that the legendary folks over at Keeled Scales had picked up Emily Hines for their roster, and today we get to present you with a fresh taste of her forthcoming These Days LP (perhaps an ode to Jackson Browne). It’s really hard for me to decipher what I love most about this tune, as there’s so much to appreciate, despite being fairly bare-bones in its presentation. Hines’ delicate vocals are certainly a draw for me, as there’s this odd little whisper effect on some of the notes that’s chilling in the best sense. But, there’s also these perfect arrangement additions that are captivating; you’ll hear this warped ambiance swelling beneath the surface, and the drum work has the precise pacing this song needs. Be sure to grab the new album before its August 1st release date.
