House of Wolves - Fold in the Wind

(released 05 July 2011 )

I am hooked and enchanted by this new (for me) a band with name which was created as a translation of a name singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ray Villalobos from Spanish to English. You will love his soft and hushed voice supported accustic guitar and slow flowing tones of a piano with percussion, and the occasional horn motif. His voice reminds me Sam Bean from Iron & Wine sometimes but music is more slower as a flow of small river or a brook. Whole record have intimate mood and you can feel as you are in the one room with him.

Songs like 50's, Acres of Fire, Follow Me you shouldn't miss if you like alt-folk music but of course the rest of songs pays your attention. Highly recommended this beautiful record.
