Bodies of Water are like a million bands that I listen to: I give them a listen, decide they aren’t for me, sit on the record for months or years, then give them a try and love them. It’s hard to do this, because I’m so ashamed with myself for being so wrong before, denying myself such excellent music. It’s literally been at least 2 years since I gave Bodies of Water a shot, and I am sad about myself for that.
They’ve released two fantastic record on Secretly Canadian, and I heavily suggest you check them up. It’s big, baroque roots-y folk-pop, with group sing alongs and tons of emotion. It’s great music because the band really feels like they’re giving it their all.
The website that put this video together is Swedish, so I’m still working through what they’re all about, but I’m all about Bodies of Water. Enjoy!
P.S. Quick question: Are there any Canadian bands that sound like this? I like to support my homeland, but I can’t for the life of me think of any national heroes that deliver this type of sound…
