I’ve been recently listening to Indie Pop duo Graffiti6. The album, appropriately named Colours, is vibrant, a collection of fun little dance grooves. Puts to mind a Gnarls Barkley kinda of sound, and maybe the vocal drama of Prince. The lead singer looks more like a character from 90210 than a frontman, but he gets the job done. There are slower jam tracks like “This Man” and “Calm the Storm” that sort of trip up the flow of the entire album. (I secretly agree with the Barney Stinson philosophy… “people often think a good mix should rise and fall, but people are wrong. It should be ALL RISE, baby!”)
But I think “Free” is the track that originally caught my ear. A little soulful, makes me want to put my arms around people and sway to the chorus, “and I can’t live without you and it’s hard to breathe when you’re not near…” At little lyrical cheese never hurt anyone. Looking forward to see them perform at the Firefly Music Festival in July. http://www.graffiti6.com/
