Seabear

Icelandic 7-piece Seabear just released a new indie-folk album called We Built A Fire as well as a companion EP entitled When The Fire Dies. I've been a fan of Seabear for a while now, and these albums do not disappoint. Initially a lo-fi solo project, Seabear has become an experimental indie-folk-pop adventure, full of floating suites built on acoustic guitar and sprinkled with beautiful cello, light bells and gentle lush vocals. "Lion Face Boy" is the lead-off track of the album, but "Cold Summer" is also a stellar track and can be heard on their myspace.
