Our Take

The latest offering from father-son duo Tom & Ben Paley, aptly titled "Paley & Son," is a delightful trip down memory lane for those who cherish traditional folk music. With Tom's decades of experience as a respected folk musician and Ben's youthful energy and talent, this album is a perfect blend of old-school charm and modern flair.

From the opening track, "The Butcher Boy," the Paleys showcase their impressive musical prowess, with tight harmonies and intricate instrumentation that transport listeners to the quaint British countryside. Each song on the album is a gem in its own right, with highlights including the haunting ballad "Mary Hamilton" and the exhilarating reel "Jenny Pluck Pears."

The Paleys' reverence for the roots of folk music is evident throughout the album, with nods to traditional English, Scottish, and American folk styles woven into each track. Their passion for the genre shines through in every note, making "Paley & Son" a refreshing listen for both longtime fans of folk music and newcomers alike.

While some listeners may find the album's traditional sound a bit too niche for their tastes, those who appreciate the timeless beauty of folk music will undoubtedly find much to love in Tom & Ben Paley's latest offering. With "Paley & Son," the Paleys have proven once again that good music knows no age or boundaries.
