Palmer, Elin
Postcard
Palmers voice is reminiscent of Enya or Kate Bush with a subtler, softer range. Her Swedish accent flavors her English songs with a distinct presence, and makes her traditional Swedish folksongs come very alive. The music cant be classified. At one point it sounds like a classical string quartet, or straight folk songs. Then you go a chord and it is a hook ridden pop song that begs to be danced to. Palmers music is easy accessible to those used to Devotchka, Dresden Dolls. People who love pop will also be drawn into this easily addictive music. Elin has worked with with 16 Horsepower, The Czars, Wovenhand, M. Ward, and The Fray as a studio violinist. She has performed live with Devotchka, Munly and The Lee Lewis Harlots, and Eric Bachmann (Archers of Loaf). Tracklisting: 1. Postcard 2. Paint 3. Time 4. Stora Stovlar 5. Balloons 6. Du Var Dar 7.
