Description
In 2020 Brooklyn’s Holy Hive introduced us all to something we didn’t know we needed. Homer Steinweiss’ thickly pocketed drumming paired with Paul Spring’s floaty falsetto vocal produces a sound that’s like a salve. It’s been dubbed Folk Soul and Holy Hive not only expertly overlay the more apparent musical aspects of folk and soul, but they also draw from the more profound: being able to pull traditions from the past and make them their own. Their first record, Float Back to You, expertly combined what each memeber does best: Paul’s heady, reflective approach to folk with Homer’s universal classic soul sound.
With their new record released on Big Crown, Holy Hive’s beautifully simple-and-sparse Folk Soul sound is back but updated. With new influences and the challenge of creating and capturing music during a global pandemic, this new self-titled album, is more personal, more reflective.
