Our Take

BOOKSHOP BAND's latest offering, "Bring Me Back A Pyramid," is a whimsical journey through the literary landscapes of imagination and melody. Drawing inspiration from classic literature and modern storytelling, this album is a delightful mix of folk-pop tunes that transport listeners to far-off lands and magical realms.

From the opening track, "Once Upon A Time," to the closing notes of "The Last Page," BOOKSHOP BAND weaves a tapestry of enchanting melodies and clever lyrics that keep the listener engaged from start to finish. The duo's harmonies are as tight as a well-stocked bookshelf, and their musicianship is as impressive as a rare first edition.

Songs like "A Tale of Two Cities" and "The Great Gatsby" showcase the band's clever wordplay and ability to craft catchy hooks that will have you humming along in no time. And with titles like "Pride and Prejudice" and "Wuthering Heights," it's clear that these two have a love for literature that shines through in every note.

In a music industry filled with cookie-cutter pop stars and generic beats, BOOKSHOP BAND stands out as a refreshing and unique voice. "Bring Me Back A Pyramid" is a gem of an album that will appeal to bookworms and music lovers alike. So grab your favourite novel, pour yourself a cup of tea, and let BOOKSHOP BAND take you on a literary musical adventure unlike any other.
