I got this album which I didn’t get to see on Thursday night.
Like Art is by birdsacrosswater, who is a solo artist by Nic Lefebvre (also in Hunt Chant).
This is like a side project at the moment for Nic.
His other band mate Michael O’Brien is with Sick Friend.
I swear there must be something significant in the Montreal music scene.
birdacrosswater’s music is very folky acoustic with some experimental sounds.
Right now I can’t think in my head of what artist he sounds like.
Maybe abit like Chad Vangaalen or Destroyer.
This CD is very arty in sound.
Very haunting in tracks like:
- We Be Right Then
- Dagger In The Ground
- Sunday Ballad
- Pretty Purple Shades
- Like Art
A distinct 1960s folky sound and overall a nice and creative CD.
Nice to see an artist use different instruments on the album.
Best tracks:
- We Be Right Then
- Dagger In The Ground
- Like A Knife
- Ye Olde Dirty 2 B
- Sunday Ballad
- Like Art
Go on Bandcamp and check it out.
