Rufous Nightjar, "Sunday," & "Red Robin," // GemsOnVHS™

Описание к видео Rufous Nightjar, "Sunday," & "Red Robin," // GemsOnVHS™

A special double feature today from Ireland here for y'all. Anthony, me, went to Ireland and heard through the grapevine about this incredible three piece harmony group, Rufous Nightjar. They really knocked my socks off with the vocal control, the timing and precision. I have enough trouble singing random harmonies in the shower, so to hear them flawlessly blast through entire songs together really inspired me. Accapella groups like this are seriously lacking in America. Contemporary groups actually making a go at just using the human voice as an instrument are largely vanished from the scene. Still out there of course, but generally relegated to some corner of obscure nerdom like a barbershop quartet. In a world where voices can be "fixed in post" with the push of an autotune button, its still incredibly impressive to hear people using their natural voices to record stuff like this. Real human interaction, three people doing it the natural way, collaborating and creating in the moment.

My friend Luke Brabazon, the Irish filmmaker who has been helping me film a few different sessions from Ireland (   • DUG, "Jubilee," // GemsOnVHS™  ) assisted me on this one. Can not thank him enough! Y'all got any Irish acts i'm missing out on? Who should I have recorded by now? Scold me!
