private  Rue Royale : The Search for where to go EP (US,2007)***'

Technically this EP sounds like one song divided in 5 different sections.

The vocal arrangements with focused strummed guitars, and a few piano notes (by Aaron Stampfl), with soft percussion being added (by Aaron Mortenson), have something familiar to Sufjan Stevens, in a somewhat folkier, intimate happy way, with its own sweet small room poppy attraction.

Brookln Dekker sings some solo parts just here and there, but I only heard Ruth singing solo very briefly (on “even in the darkness”), which is a bit a shame, because her voice is a beautiful bird when carrying these solo parts to its own modest heights..(reminiscent of Agincourt's charming singer perhaps)...
