I think because of this blogs longevity and doggone stubborness it inevitably pops up near the top of any Google search for any roots music genre term combined with the words “music blog”. For example type in “americana” and “music blog” and you guessed it #1. But type in “indie folk” and “music blog” and we’re way down at #2 (ironically my other music blog Swedesplease is #1). So in an attempt to move up to # 1 in the all important “indie folk” music blog google search here is another post about an indie folk band with a charming new record.
Little Sur is a trio from NYC but they are all transplants and this music is delicate in a way I don’t think is representative of a band hailing from the city. Speaking of fragile, delicate things here is the band’s song “A Fragile Thing”. On this song the band relies on delicate finger plucked guitar and banjo and Jesse Aicher’s beautiful soaring vocals. The whole 5 song EP is available here.
