Must listen: A Minor Bird by Sucre

Sucre is the solo project of Stacy King from Eisley and while I've never been a huge Eisley fan, I love this album. While it has the same melodic pop elements, it's more mature and feminine and includes a whimsical combination of instruments. It's dreamy and delicate, reminding me of a lazy spring day or the moment you begin to drift off to sleep. I've never heard an album this lovely, but it does remind me a bit of  early Bjork.



 

Standout tracks: Hiding Out, When We Were Young, Stampede, Say Something and Chemical Reaction

Music has been less exciting to me recently, everything seems to sound the same, but this album is unique and just what I've been looking for.

What are you listening to?

  1. I'm bored with music too, but I'm loving "Little Talks" by Of Monsters and Men.

  2. Keeping with the solo project thing, I'm really loving Provincial by John K. Samson (Weakerthans)

  5. "When We Were Young" is a pretty nice song. I like the contrast of the lyrics and music- longing for a simpler time over a lighthearted background.
