The Brisbane folk duo has come a long way from a low-key DIY project on Soundcloud to a must-know major act gathering large audiences from all around the globe, breathing new life into the challenged genre of smooth guitar folk. Following their recent “Blessings” EP, NBHAP author Andreas zoomed up the two to talk about keeping a positive mindset in pandemic times, songwriting challenges and how to avoid being tied to the indie folk closet.
Nostalgia does spark a great lot of creativity. Canadian singer and songwriter Jon Bryant also made use of the emotion on the heartfelt single ‘Ya Ya Ya Ya’. Shifting between melancholic lyrics and upbeat instrumentation, the single is an emotional ride. Hop on and check out the moody video clip on NBHAP.
