Sarah Klang – Strangers (Pangur Musik)
 |
| Sarah Klang - Strangers |
Release Date: Out Now
This is one of those songs that
you have to put on again as soon as it’s finished just to check that it’s as
lovely, heartbreaking and luscious as you thought it was. ‘Strangers’ was
apparently written when Klang was living in Gothenburg but just about to move
to Stockholm and that sense of a chapter closing and another opening up is writ
large on the walls of this alt-country tune. This is First Aid Kit but darker,
Johnny Cash doing ‘Hurt’ but with a sweeter voice or the perfect song to leave
town on a Greyhound bus to if your head tells you to leave but your heart is
hanging on to the bus stop with every last beat. The guitars are warm and
inviting, the drums subtle and the organ rich and smooth but it’s Sarah Klang’s
stunning voice that sells it. In fact, the only blemish on this otherwise
perfect release is the press photo that looks like a reject from a 70s wedding
but at least it’s an original and unusual image.
