The third CD by a group described by a Rolling Stone reviewer as the "best a cappella trio in Australia," "little mountains" is a sign of growing poise and maturity in this, the 8th year since the group got together. It is an eclectic collection of familiar and original songs with a unique sassiness and edgy beat. Sarah Liversidge, Simon Nugent and Carl Pannuzzo's sound is understated, often moody, with laid-back vocal percussion and a self-assured style that vaguely reminds us of a worried Bobby McFerrin. Inadequate attempts to describe them aside, let us say that there are 6 songs here, the title tune, "Is It Okay If I Call You Mine?," "Tumble," "A Dress Made Of Rubies," Peter Gabriel's "Don't Give Up" and M. Thomas' "For A Short Time." The last two are the only songs familiar to us, and the dark tone of "Don't Give Up" (like a lot of Gabriel's music) fits the Acapelicans like a glove. Envelope-pushing a cappella that is gaining this group a lot of attention! Listen to Little Mountains in RealAudio. |
