Mikey's Pick--Rue Royale

This husband wife duo have got me hooked with their acoustic mellow vibe. The two live in England, where I think they have gained an influence of British-pop which can be heard slightly in their music.  It makes for a great sound.  They recently released another album "Guide to an Escape."  It is very very good.  Flowing vocals and at times eerie melodies backed by a constant strum of the guitar and simplistic drumming: gotta love it.  They have packed up their kick drum and currently are touring world wide.  Go to their website for dates and to purchase the new album.  


One track off the new album:

Rue Royale--Halfway Blind LIVE!

and a few from their older albums:

Rue Royale--Parachutes and Lifeboats

Rue Royale--UFO

Rue Royale--Even in the Darkness
