Tin Sparrow

Folk-Indie Band From Sydney Australia. Band Members Are Matt Sonja Dean And Mark. "Tin Sparrow Who Usually Operates As A Four-Piece Strikes Me As A Band Who Just Loves Playing Together. Every Time I Listen To From The Sun I Can’t Help But Crack A Dopey Grin No Matter How Hard I Resist So Their Frivolity Clearly Translates Over To Their Recording. While The EP Is On The Short Side The Four Tracks Are Beautifully Created And Promise Much For Future Recordings. Similar But Perhaps Sunnier Than Boy And Bear The Tracks Have An Alt-Country Style With A Bounty Of Vast Group Harmonies Slide Guitar And Swingin’ Rhythms. Their Live Shows Also Include Plenty Of Whistling Interesting Percussion And Countless Forms Of General Yahooing. “Fool’s Gold” Just Gets My Vote As Top Track. It’s Probably The One Which Gets My Grin To Its Dopiest Level The Deciding Factor. This Is A Song Which Is Difficult Not To Get Swept Up In With The Floating Harmonies Being Finished Off Nicely By A Plucky Guitar Solo. “For You” Is A Little Dreamier With Excellent Use Of The Usually Under-Appreciated Xylophone. Song Appeared On Grey's Anatomy Season 8. A Glockenspiel Is Also Used In Other Tracks How Cheerful Is That! This Is A Young Band In Industry Terms And Yet They Have Already Had A Good Amount Of Exposure With Reasonable Rotation On Local Radio As Well As Performances At A Number Of Popular Festivals For Which They Are Custom Made For . Rumor Has It They’ve Been Working On New Tracks So Keep Your Ear To The Ground For Some More Tin Sparrow Coming Your Way Soon. In The Meantime Be Like Me And Get Happy With From The Sun." read less
