“A collection of new songs that showcase the duo's celestial harmonies, songs with stories that unfold like wild, vivid dreams…” – NPR’s World Café “Taking the acoustic, vocal poise of Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon and doubling that is exactly what you’ll get with indie-folk duo Penny and Sparrow. The duo’s latest single “Don’t Wanna Be Without Ya” finds Kyle Jahnke and Andy Baxter playing on the nuances of Simon & Garfunkel’s “Cecilia,” while also managing a freshness that is all their own.”
Beginning with 2013’s Tenboom, the staunchly DIY pair Penny & Sparrow released a series of critically lauded records that garnered comparisons to the hushed intimacy of Iron & Wine and the adventurous beauty of James Blake, building up a devoted fanbase along the way through relentless touring and word-of-mouth buzz. NPR praised the band’s songwriting as a “delicate dance between heartache and resolve,” while World Café raved that they’ve “steadily built a sound as attentive to detail as Simon & Garfunkel and as open to the present day as Bon Iver.”
Penny & Sparrow’s magnificent sixth album Finch is titled as a nod to Charles Darwin, who developed his theory of evolution in part by studying the changes that manifested over time in groups of birds that moved to different islands across the Galapagos, and it’s easy to see the connection. The album finds the band reckoning with a prolonged period of intense personal transformation, a profound awakening that altered their perceptions of masculinity, sex, religion, divorce, friendship, vanity, purpose, and, perhaps most importantly, self. Deeply vulnerable and boldly cinematic, the resulting songs blur the lines between indie-folk and alt-pop, with dense string arrangements and atmospheric production underpinning soaring melodies and airtight harmonies. It’s a revelatory collection, both for the listener and the performers, one that’s been a lifetime in the making.
The single “Don't Wanna Be Without Ya" is about being so enamored with someone that if they figured out the secret to reincarnation and got to choose their next life, you'd pick the same thing just so you could stay together.
