| Detour 33 - Back Home |
Release Date: Out Now
We wouldn’t think twice about an
act with three vocalists these days – Destiny’s Child, for example – so it
makes perfect sense, in terms of musical evolution, that we have a band fronted
by three guitarists. Finnish quartet Detour 33 are all about the 6 strings and
new single ‘Back Home’ shows off the unique but beautifully complimentary
skills of Markus Vaisanen, Juuso Kolho and Jarkka Rissanen all driven along by
the drumming of lone sticksman Janne
Mathlin (imagine being the only drummer in a band full of guitarists,
shudder). Starting off like a gentle meander along a tree lined river bank the
guitars soon shift in to a darker baritone mood whilst still allowing Mathlin
space to express himself. This entirely instrumental affair is somewhere
between good friends having a jam, some jazz duelling and the former bandmates
of a recently deceased singer performing at his or her funeral. Sombre and
maudlin at times, for sure, but certainly beautiful and lusciously layered up
to the heavens.
