they are back!!!!!! in july!
my musical taste is weird but trust me it is all goooood! i love love this group Burlap to cashmere and the only shreds of for keeps i had of them is an album i shelve from wanton hands and prying eyes in case they steal it and i dont get it back, plus its one of my few originals straight from other countries and it dint come easy. listening to Burlap to cashmere is like watching a musical play performance. the language is poetic and visual, the beats? mediteranean, rokc/folk, totally out of this world. so strange i looked them up and realized why...they have a lot of greek influences fused with world music. i am a lyrics mad person. the beat is just a coupling stead to the lyrics, the stronger and more poetic the lyrics, the better for me, so listening to one of their tracts 'dont forget to write,'and i am thinking, 'gosah,i now remember why i loved this here group in the first place,' the emotive ballades, the poetry, thegreek influences, the merge of what seems mainstream yet christian, i cant class these guys they are a class apart when it comes to music and their stlye, check out the song hope you like it!check out these lyrics once in 1998 in Eileen's songYou have one wing and I have another Seeking shelter like sister and brother Through the winter and through the summer Like one angel we'll Fly far away Hold my hand and we'll make it all right From this hell that we live in Cross the road until the light Comes inside and lives within It's a long and lonesome ride When your friends have all gone home But the roses in your eyes They pull me in so I don't feel alone now 12 years later older and deeper and still strutting the same stuff , nostalgic and emotivetheir lyrics still move me. this is from 'dont forget to write' a single from the 2011 releaseiam at ease, the ocean's nearthe sun is sinkingthe moon is tame, the fever is goneand i feel fine.oh baby dont forget to write.que sera sera, i am an orphanthough i see the world as new. do you remember when the clouds were goldand love was shining through?iam at ease the ocean's nearthe sun is sinkingi see you smiling.your eyes redeem my foolish ways and you are mineoh baby , dont forget to writethe eastern wind reveals your nameacross the skyoh i love you and dont forget to write...so compare the two!meanwhile they showed up in 1998, then disappeared with the lead singer doing two solo albums and now...come july, burlap to cashmere bring their mediteranean selves bac ktogether in a self titled album after 12 yrs! i got to go on a missionary trail to convert every blogren member to listen up and love these guys!
