Album Review
Mr. Bones
Reviewed 2021-06-29
I don't know whether dream-folk is a genre but if not it sure is now with BP's debut release. Intriguing vocal harmonies backed by largely acoustic instrumentation make this mix of folk, pop and jazz worth a spin on any Indie oriented show. Key to their enchanting sound is Danish-born Kris Skovman's lightly accented vocals coupled with an array of folk instruments including piano, guitar, melodica and hand drums.

RIYL: Simon & Garfunkel, Joni Mitchell

1 Diamonds - lyrical & enchanting with dreamy melodica accents (slow, 3:41)***
2 Heavy and Young - nice uptempo beat with hand clapping & banjo makes this a real toe tapper (fast, 3:12)**
3 Song for Rose - light synth work gives it an otherworldly feel (slow,3:41)
4 On the Burning Bridge - uptempo acoustic guitar opening sets tone for this bouncy love song (fast, 3:26)
5 Only In the Soul - gentle piano & synths make nice bed for overdubbed vocals for a surreal mood (slow, 4:05)
6 Mother On the Mountain - Wispy ode to our beautiful planet (med, 3:50)
7 Oh Me, Oh My - uptempo jazzy beat creates feeling of intrigue on this track about illusion (med, 3:42)
8 From Seville to Manhattan - interesting banjo picking in the break (med, 3:40)
9 Outside of Us - sublime mix of guitar, paino & hand drum (med, 4:10)***
10 Waiting For You - fun uptempo with nice banjo accents (fast, 3:28)**
11 Make The Sign - slow & dreamy with ethereal harmony vocals (slow, 4:11)
12 April Child - Enchanting vocals over finger picked guitar (slow, 3:37)**
