Page France – “Hello, Dear Wind”

If this record were on a bigger label, it would be on everyone’s Top 10 of the Year list. The Baltimore-based Page France returns with its sophomore release, “Hello, Dear Wind.” On the first listen, this album is incredible. The melodies and lyrics get stuck in your head for hours. When you pop it in for the second listen, you begin to absorb more. The lyrics become deeper, and there is a lot more to the music than just the tambourines you heard the first time. You will just want to keep starting over and discovering more with each listen.

The sound is somewhat folk-rock, acoustic guitar and tambourine, accompanied by the amazing vocals of singer Michael Nau.

This is an album that people are going to be talking about for years to come. There is just so much to it that the best word to describe it would be, well, perfect.
