Penny & Sparrow - Let A Lover Drown You (CD)

With influences that range from The Swell Season to Iron & Wine to Stephen Sondheim, Penny & Sparrow create music that is equally as intimate and poignant as it is powerful and earnest. The songs on Let A Lover Drown You touch on the idea that living, loving and even dying are all part of the journey we experience and that those experiences connect us to each other. Produced by John Paul White (Civil Wars) and Ben Tanner (Alabama Shakes), Let A Lover Drown You find Penny & Sparrow pushing forward while maintaining a firm footing in their signature sound, one that boasts affecting vocals and contemplative lyrics. The album introduces a denser sound than their previous work, infusing lush arrangements on tracks such as the aching opener "Finery" or the sweeping "Catalogue". Their songs feel up close and personal and induce chills as they exude haunting beauty ("Gold") and uplifting melodies with acoustic flourishes ("Makeshift"). The depth, dynamics and soul bearing on Let A Lover Drown You make it easy to understand why fans have such a strong connection to their music and why so many more are beginning to.
