Our Take

The Bookshop Band's latest offering, "We Are The Foxes," is a whimsical journey through the world of indie folk music. This duo of literary aficionados turned musicians have crafted an album that is as charming as a quaint bookstore on a rainy day.

From the quirky lyrics to the catchy melodies, each track on "We Are The Foxes" draws you in and keeps you captivated from start to finish. The Bookshop Band's unique blend of acoustic guitars, ukuleles, and vintage Moog synthesizers create a sonic landscape that is both nostalgic and innovative.

Songs like "Pages of Our Lives" and "The Secret Library" transport listeners to a world where books come to life and the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur. The duo's clever wordplay and infectious harmonies are sure to leave a smile on your face and a tune in your head long after the album has ended.

Overall, "We Are The Foxes" is a delightful addition to The Bookshop Band's discography, showcasing their talent for crafting heartfelt, literary-inspired music that is as playful as it is profound. So grab a cup of tea, curl up with a good book, and let The Bookshop Band serenade you with their whimsical tales of foxes and friendship.
