Album Review: Peggy Sue - Choir Of Echoes

17 February 2014 | 11:10 am | Ash Goldberg

"For a third album it’s a fairly stock-standard change-up, however, its lack of punch may not resonate with some."



True to its name, Choir Of Echoes opens with stirring a cappella track (Come Back Around). First single Idle and short track How Heavy The Quiet That Grew Between Your Mouth And Mine continue the choral theme, utilising melodic harmonies to emphasise evocative lyrics. The English trio stray from their harmonic path with Longest Day Of The Year Blues, which would feel more at home on a She & Him record. For a third album it's a fairly stock-standard change-up, however, its lack of punch may not resonate with some.
