Our Take
Thao and the Get Down Stay Down’s album, "We Brave Bee Stings and All", is a delightful blend of folk-pop whimsy and infectious energy. The titular bee stings may sound intimidating, but Thao Nguyen’s enchanting vocals and storytelling quickly turn pain into pleasure. From the opening track “Beat (Health, Life and Fire)”, Thao’s charming eccentricity shines through, as she effortlessly switches from playful to profound. The raw honesty and vulnerability in songs like “Cool Yourself” and “Geography” make it impossible not to be drawn in by Thao’s captivating presence. The band’s tight instrumentation, featuring everything from banjos to brass, adds layers of depth to Thao’s unique songwriting style. Tracks like “Fear and Convenience” showcase their versatility and knack for catchy hooks that will have you humming along for days. While Thao and the Get Down Stay Down may not be a household name, "We Brave Bee Stings and All" proves that they are a force to be reckoned with in the indie music scene. With its toe-tapping rhythms, heartfelt lyrics, and infectious charm, this album is a must-listen for anyone looking for a fresh take on folk-pop music. So go ahead, brave those bee stings and give Thao a listen – you won’t regret it.
