Album Review: BANFF - Future Self

StarStarStarHalf Star

"Soul-baring and dreamy, BANFF is proving to be a purveyor of beautiful folk-infused indie pop."

More BANFF BANFF Profile

Former Little Casino frontman Benjamin Forbes, who now goes by the moniker BANFF, delivers an endless stream of daydream-inducing indie pop on his debut EP.

Soaked in brooding vocal hooks and delicate instrumentation, Forbes has created a collection of beautifully lush tracks with Tom Iansek (Big Scary/#1 Dads). Stand In Line soars to a stirring crescendo before The Great Unknown plunges into a mellow soundscape. Anyone Else and All Again are blissfully ambling tunes rich in endearing ambient folk layers. Soul-baring and dreamy, BANFF is proving to be a purveyor of beautiful folk-infused indie pop.
