peter and the wolf

"I don’t know how he does it, but Red Hunter of Peter And The Wolf doesn’t know how to record a bad song. Songs from his old records have defined moments and even periods in my life. They’re the kind of songs I’ll never forget. This sort of attachment to artists is why it’s difficult for artists to meet expectations and live up to music they made before that has had time to grow on their fans. The new track Hazy Lions from the to be released record Easy Mountain grabs you like a smell grabs a memory when Dan Falcoberry, the perfect compliment to Red’s voice, harmonizes with herself in true Peter And The Wolf style. Just like the chorus “And every morning we transcend the past” this song transcends any expectations a fan could have had for these tunes." invisible children

peter and the wolf

 peter and the wolf - s/t (whiskey & apples, 2005)
Red Hunter y Dana Falconberry han hecho en apenas media hora uno de los discos más bonitos y entrañables de folk que he escuchado este año, desnudo y atemporal como una radio de carretera mal sintonizada de los años cincuenta.  suena 'the apple tree', la belleza condensada en un minuto y medio, y pienso en Jana Hunter, James Toth y Richie Valens. si queréis saber más cosas de este dúo de Austin, pinchad aquí y aquí.)
