Findlay Brown : Seperated by the Sea (UK,2006,pub.2007)***°°
Findlay’s biographical story tells about countryside’s life where one seemed to need to be tough. After a relationship with a girl who left to Denmark, Findlay’s songs and experiences express themselves in two different kinds of inspiration of songs, of which the presentation to the world compromises between those two worlds of experiences.
The first kind of songs are the most vulnerable expressions, from deeply felt through inspirations, that are related with the direct inner experiences to the love affair, in a very catchy and strong form, a combination of a self-assured presence with subtleness, delicate arrangements, expressed by a beautiful voice and vocal harmonies and delicate guitar playing, and with a perfect production, with some orchestrations, and other arrangements. These inner expressions sound strongest. They sound as if they’re recognisable as a lost late ‘60s and ‘70’s classic.
But there’s also the countrysided boy (mostly the last few songs) coming from the basis that formed the self-assured grounding experience (with a Nashville flavour).
A recommended singer-songwriter. Produced by ex-Simian front man Simon Lord.
