Now a lovely duo of ladies called Smoke Fairies with their album Strange The Things. Have a listen if you care to www.myspace/smokefairies . Always nice to hear two females so entwined they come as one. As one lifts, one falls and then they are in unison making beautiful patterns grinding deep into the fabric all to the backing of a couple acoustic guitar. Think like Turin Brakes or Ben and Jason. Pretty bluesy and sometimes a bit Celtic at times. Talented and flexible girls indeed.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

A lovingly crafted 11 track album awaits you and it's clear from the outset that their agenda is based around earthy, traditional folk and blues, a distinctive song-writing style and some wonderful, almost choral, vocal harmonies.
Mature beyond their years yet full of wide-eyed innocence and angst, Smoke Fairies sing about subjects that will be instantly familiar to anyone and manage to vocalise a wide range of emotions and feelings. Admiration, elation, isolation and abandonment all intricately woven into moments delivered with a combination of achingly beautiful vocal fragility and yet a gritty self assurance.
