Our Take

Ah, She Keeps Bees, the Brooklyn-based duo who have been buzzing around the indie rock scene for over a decade now. Their latest offering, "Kinship," is an album that truly lives up to its name, as it feels like a warm embrace from a long-lost friend.

From the opening track, "Coyote," it is clear that frontwoman Jessica Larrabee's haunting vocals are the driving force behind this record. Her raw, soulful delivery cuts through the layers of fuzzy guitars and pounding drums like a hot knife through butter.

The album is a masterclass in restraint, with every note and lyric carefully chosen to evoke a sense of intimacy and connection. Tracks like "Limping God" and "Soma" showcase the band's ability to build tension and release it in a cathartic burst of emotion.

But what truly sets She Keeps Bees apart is their ability to blend the personal with the universal. Songs like "The Only Way," with its haunting refrain of "I want to live forever, I want to do it better," speak to the universal desire for connection and meaning in a world that often feels cold and indifferent.

In conclusion, "Kinship" is a triumph for She Keeps Bees, a band that continues to defy expectations and push boundaries. It is an album that demands to be listened to in the quiet moments, when the world feels too big and too loud. So grab a cup of tea, settle in, and let She Keeps Bees be your guide through the murky waters of modern life.

About the artist

She Keeps Bees

She Keeps Bees isn't just your run-of-the-mill indie rock duo. Oh no, this Brooklyn-based band is like a breath of fresh air in a smog-filled city. With Jessica Larrabee's sultry vocals and Andy LaPlant's mesmerizing guitar skills, She Keeps Bees is a force to be reckoned with. Their music is a delicious concoction of blues, rock, and folk, with a hint of grit and a sprinkle of soul. Larrabee's lyrics are like poetry for the heartbroken, and LaPlant's music is like a warm hug on a cold winter's night. Together, they create magic on stage and in the studio. But what really sets She Keeps Bees apart is their live performances. Larrabee's stage presence is electric, with a voice that can pierce through even the loudest of crowds. And LaPlant's guitar playing is like watching a master craftsman at work, each note precise and full of emotion. If you haven't heard of She Keeps Bees yet, then you're missing out. They're like that hidden gem of a record store that you stumble upon by accident and wonder how you ever lived without it. So do yourself a favor and give them a listen. Who knows, they just might become your new favorite band.
