The RiverHas Many Voices – I We Us Are Was Were Is (Independent)

As the new indie-folk revival gathers pace, Paynewill surely find his place at a top table. There’s a dreamlike quality presentthroughout the record, which provides instant, lasting comfort and reassurance.The warmth of the production and the instrumentation, which includes keyboardsand strings, offers misty backing to the songs of love, loss and constantchange. The opening number “Simple Mornings” is fragile and delicate, and quitebeautiful. Piano takes the strain, and a lonely harmonica adds detail. “Our Forever Is Now” seems somehowsimpler, but perhaps it’s just a shift of focus to the song, and “The Changes” follows a similar,successful route. It ends with “I'mGonna Love You Anyway”, and epic heartbreaker, flawlesslyrealized, it closes the collection on a substantial, significant high.www.theriverhasmanyvoices.comwww.matthewpayne.bandcamp.comRob F.
