Sweet, acoustic, living sound, I could close my eyes and see this band - charming, stage lit, I could reach out and touch the musicians. They have captivating folk voices, great guitar, harmonica, drums and more. It would be fun to see them down at the corner Mickey Finn's Pub live. "Give it time..." was wonderful with its gentle male voices. "Baby Boy Killer" was such a sad tale,(and with the ambulance's harsh sounds and lullaby gentle tones in the background to give atmosphere) it brought the tears to my eyes. "Winter Blues" has an enchanting melody to capture the imagination. My favorite was "a long time for laughter." The voices were clear, the melody was uncluttered. Just a simple folk song very harmonious with a slow measured beat and an interesting tale to tell.
Pretty Little Empire is a pretty good band with a name that stands out a bit (its unusually cute for a band). Very comfortable to listen to their recordings.
