Artist: Georgiana Starlington
Album: Paper Moon
Label: Hozac Records - Chicago
Review: shineymic. 6-15-13
First full length. Nifty Retro album. A single released Oct. 2012, Wanna Fall In Love sounded more like a try at synth-pop.
Jack and Julia Hines: Male/Female Singing Duo, Drums, Bass, Pedal Steel,keyboard and musical saw.
They each sing solo, and accompany each other on different tracks.
Mood is brooding and lyrics dark. Only a few major chords are to be heard.
Hushed quality, not a jam, not show offs, this is cool and understated,occasionally strangely danceable music.
Featured is a downbeat instrumental tune, surprisingly I think, because great instrumental
prowess is not apparent in these recordings.
A few performances held down to minimal acoustic strumming.
Nothing too long, and 2, 8, and 12 are less than two minutes.
Track twelve has about a minute of blank space/noise at the end.
1. 2:53 Hard Grave - Julia Hines sings the ghostly lead
2. 0:59 Mirage - Instrumental
3.3:09 Brave Wolf - Duo, "Bad News" n lyric - Musical Saw
4. 3:02 Louise, Louise Jack Hines takes lead - Steel Guitar
5. 3:49 The Great Divide. Julia - over a tom-tom beat
6. 3:50 The Ocean. Slow 6/8 opens in major key to a minor key chorus
7. 3:48 Gust. Jack lead Julia behind lost love echo toms fade into next
8. 1:39 In The Night. Instrumental a tag end for Gust wind-scape.
9. 3:27 Dry As a Bone. Julia: "it's Five AM in a pitch black night..." slow fade
10. 3:36 Legendary Wreck Jack, with harmonica spooky song about a car crash
11. 5:37 Days Of Heaven. Julia, starts fast, slows down. goes crazy. fades.
12. 3:26 Moonlight. - Jack softly over night noises song ends at 2:15
13. 2:47 I'm Coming Down. Duo singing over organ and acoustic guitar
