Lily & Madeline @ Lincoln Hall, Chicago November 15, 2014 To be honest, I’d never hear
Lily & Madeline @ Lincoln Hall, Chicago November 15, 2014 To be honest, I’d never heard any of Lily & Madeline’s songs before going to their concert. This is usually, for me personally, a terrible idea. I get all disconnected by not fitting in with the collectively-adoring audience; I get mad when I can’t sing along after the musician yells at us to; etc. Lily & Madeline may be the best possible show to go into blind, to have no clue about the magic you’re about to encounter. Much like First Aid Kit, Lily and Madeline Jurkiewicz are sisters, folk-pop singers first discovered via YouTube. They’ve got a quite, soft strength very much akin to Fleet Foxes – another band with enormous power in the build. But man, when you see these girls live, off the internet channels where they got their start, when you see the humbleness and the warm hearts of the sisters pouring into their instruments, songs and words between sets, you really get the power. Sure, the way they layer their voices better than any corporate produced girl band is one major reason you need to check them out, but the other is simply, if you do, they’re not gonna leave until you’ve had a good time. // Kati Heng -- source link
