I find it slightly nauseating that we've come upon August (but this softens the blow).
Nick Thorburn & Jim Guthrie are Human Highway & their debut album is Moody Motorcycle. That sentence itself gives you a little thrill, doesn't it?
Thorburn describes the duo as possessing an Everly Brothers/Simon & Garfunkel "lullaby-type stuff" sound. As one who advocates free love to all musical genres, I have always maintained a tremendous soft spot for folk harmonies. It sounds like a marriage between early jazz & later rock rooted from when "a moment of hurt combines with a moment of boredom."
I have fierce anticipation for an album which (even now) feels like a triumph of tenderness, lost & found.
The Beach - Human Highway
The Sound - Human Highway
