lanterns on the lake ~ bella union (2010)

"After a brief – and heady - flirtation, Bella Union records are pleased to announce the signing of lanterns on the lake… Hailing from the North East of England, Lanterns on the Lake specialise in haunting, cinematic dream-pop. With their starry songs and lustrous melodies, the band have quietly gone about creating something magical and inspiring, displaying both a quiet melancholy and a soaring intensity." bella union

mountain man ~ made the harbor (bella union 2010)

"Made the Harbor is the extraordinary new album by Mountain Man. The Bennington, Vermont based trio sing a cappella in mesmerising harmonies accompanied only occasionally by an acoustic guitar, producing what can easily be described as a breathtakingly beautiful album...Their music is nestled in the tradition of American folk, but shoots like diamond dust out of the nest into the high, wide atmosphere. Their songs are shaped by three searching voices, encompassing harmonies and a shared belief in and love of the world. Mountain Man are mutually moved to sing by their love for people, and for trees, birds and mountains, the ocean, the night, the moon, and being a woman. They all love the rambling, rumbling, rolling summer. Each member of the group writes for the band." bella union
