Freelance Whales

I had previously done a post about this group along with others after seeing them at ACL, but now, after listening to them much more, I'm going to do another blog about them. This group isn't a very well known one. They are, however, very talented. They put out very unique music that has an indie and electronic feel to it. They also use a banjo, which adds a touch of country to their sound.

This song is relatively low energy. It also shows off the voice of the singer very well. He has a very high pitched singing voice, which works perfectly for their music. I think that he sounds great in this song. Previous to me listening to this band, I had thought that I didn't like electronic at all. They have shown me this perfect balance between indie and electronic that I love.

I included this song in the last blog but it's good enough to be repeated. It also has an indie electronic or pop feel to it. The chorus is really good sounding, to me. It also shows off his voice well.

This is an interesting song, as the lyrics don't start until a good ways in. The banjo is used in the intro to give it an immediate country feel that almost remains the whole song. The simplicity of the song is what makes me enjoy it.
