Last Week’s Jams, Today (10.31 – 11.4)

Strangely, I thought we covered a lot of territory last week, especially as I ran too much goodness on Friday. But, apparently we had a measly 14 songs run, plus some Levitation wrap-ups and a show-preview or two in the pages. I was excited to hear new music from both Seazoo and En Attendant Ana, both who’ve been quiet for a bit. Plus, that Field School and Heather Trost dropping Friday pretty much made the week a whole pile of awesomeness, in my book anyways. Visit if you will.

Homesickness Shares Your Fire Must Dance Again

Danish outfit Homesickness will be releasing their debut album, Blood Rush, real soon, and for many of us, this might be our first introduction to the project. It’s a septet centered around the voice and craft of Malthe Junge; there’s something very Bill Callahan-esque about his presentation, which was what immediately drew me to this track. As it progresses beyond strum and vocals, the dramatic swell creates this soft-spoken sense of wonder, and I could only dive in further. The arrangement lifts the song to the spiritual, no doubt alluding to some of Junge’s Leonard Cohen influences. Blood Rush is certainly shaping up to be something quite nice; we’ll keep you updated on a release date when we hear from the band’s label, Pink Cotton Candy Records.
