We have been waiting a long time to see Arborea play and now finally they are back in the UK and will be even touching down in Bristol which is right on our doorstep! So we’re very very happy! We’re big fans, in case you didn’t guess! Arborea are Buck and Shanti who, amongst producing some of the most incredible music we play also did us a lovely mix just before last Christmas which gave us a taster of some of their roots and inspirations. Their music is very visual and has bright shades of ethereal folk. There is a harmony between both of them that shines through in their music. From the videos I’ve seen, their performances are effortless, or rather their efforts are so in tune with each other that their musical creations are as natural as breathing.
In short, do yourself a favour, come along an exprience the intimacy that Arborea offer in their music and I promise you won’t be disappointed!
To help kick things off they’ve recorded this great song called Careless Love…A song about the consequences of falling for a surfer! You can download it now:
