Our Take

Right, strap in folks, because we're diving headfirst into the whimsical world of MAURA KENNEDY's latest offering, "Villanelle: The Songs Of Maura Kennedy And B.D. Love". If you're not already familiar with Kennedy's work, let me paint you a picture: imagine if Joni Mitchell and Jeff Lynne had a love child, and that love child grew up to be a quirky indie pop sensation. Yeah, it's that good.

From the opening track "Carousel", Kennedy's ethereal vocals transport you to a dreamlike state where the sun is always shining and the melodies never stop flowing. Each song is like a mini musical journey, with unexpected twists and turns that keep you on your toes and leave you wanting more.

But let's not forget about her partner in crime, B.D. Love. His contributions to the album add a layer of depth and complexity that takes Kennedy's sound to a whole new level. Tracks like "Babylon" and "Paper Boats" showcase the perfect synergy between their songwriting styles, creating a harmonious blend of folk, pop, and just a touch of rock'n'roll.

So, grab your headphones, pour yourself a cuppa, and prepare to be whisked away on a sonic adventure like no other. MAURA KENNEDY's "Villanelle" is a must-listen for any music lover looking to add a bit of magic to their playlist. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Maura Kennedy

Maura Kennedy is not your average singer-songwriter. With a voice that can captivate even the most jaded music critic, Kennedy has carved out a niche for herself in the folk-pop world with her quirky lyrics and infectious melodies. Hailing from New York City, Kennedy first burst onto the scene as one half of the folk duo The Kennedys, alongside her husband Pete. But it wasn't long before she branched out on her own, releasing solo albums that showcased her unique blend of folk, pop, and Americana. Kennedy's music is a breath of fresh air in a world filled with cookie-cutter pop stars and manufactured rock bands. Her songs are filled with clever wordplay and unexpected twists, keeping listeners on their toes from start to finish. But don't let her whimsical lyrics fool you – Kennedy is a seasoned musician with years of experience under her belt. She has toured the world, played with some of the biggest names in the industry, and earned a reputation as a dynamic performer with a voice that can silence a room. In a music industry that often favours style over substance, Maura Kennedy is a true original. Her music is honest, heartfelt, and downright addictive – once you start listening, you'll find it hard to stop. So do yourself a favour and give Maura Kennedy a listen – you won't be disappointed.
