Our Take

GILL SANDELL's "Light The Boats" is a refreshing wave of folk-pop brilliance that is sure to make you grab your dancing wellies and hit the nearest English countryside festival. With her angelic vocals and playful instrumentation, Sandell effortlessly weaves tales of love, loss, and redemption that will have you pondering life's deeper questions while tapping your feet to the catchy melodies.

The album opens with the infectious "Wild Young Brave," a foot-stomping anthem that sets the tone for what's to come. Sandell's clever lyrics and catchy hooks draw you in, while the rich layers of instrumentation keep you hooked from start to finish. Tracks like "The Opposite of Human," with its haunting melodies and introspective lyrics, showcase Sandell's emotional depth and songwriting prowess.

But it's not all serious introspection on "Light The Boats." Songs like "Small Like a Song" and "Ladies' Luck" bring a fun, quirky energy to the album that will have you smiling from ear to ear. Sandell's charismatic stage presence shines through on every track, making you feel like you're right there in the front row of her sold-out show.

Overall, GILL SANDELL's "Light The Boats" is a must-listen for any folk music fan looking for something fresh and exciting. So grab a pint, kick back, and let Sandell's enchanting melodies light your soul on fire.
