Why is it that one family can produce multiple talents (be it writers, actors, or musicians) and others (mine in particular) don’t produce any. Is their a type of child rearing that can stimulate those little minds or is it all in the genes? Is a stable home life better or does chaos somehow create little musical prodigies?
Mathew Barber got me thinking these thoughts today. He’s the brother of Canadian chanteuse Jill Barber and now has a new record out called Ghost Notes on the Canadian label Outside Music.
“Easily Bruised” stands out due to the effortless and confident delivery of Mathew’s vocals and the simple, catchy chorus. You can buy Ghost Notes here.
Easily Bruised (the Canadian blog Chromewaves has a demo of this song here)
