Thursday 09.16.10: THE CHAPIN SISTERS / THE FINCHES / HI HO SILVER OH @ echo

THE CHAPIN SISTERS || LISTEN || WATCH
You won’t see the Chapin Sisters on MTV, and that’s probably a good thing. Their music is well crafted with intense lyrics, traumatizing instrumentals, and all that is second nature to their insane harmonies that just makes you wonder how long they practice at it. The sister duo, Abigail and Lily Chapin, have put together a solid album after their debut, Lake Bottom. It’s not much of a step from their first album but it’s who they are, a talented band with heavy folk roots, who may have been born in the wrong era.
Two still has their folk elements that they’re known for but they also tap into a little bit of jazz as well as some country this time around. “Paradise” stood out to me as one of the best tracks on the second record, they throw their harmonies behind some solid piano playing a la Norah Jones, just a little stronger vocally. They stick to the theme of this record with lyrics like “no other drug will do/I know it’s true/I’m so much better off with you.” It’s songs like this that makes you think Two may not be so much about their second record coming out but having that second chance we all want so bad after we screw up in a relationship. This just a beautiful song with nothing but keys and the tambourine. – Indie Media Mag
