DSD April 11, 2017: "Palms (featuring Liz Lawrence) - Allman Brown
Shaun Cordingley
Welcome to the "Daily Song Drop": theguysfrom.com's song of the day feature where our resident indie music writer and former DJ Shaun Cordingley features a song every weekday that he feels you need to hear.
Palms (featuring Liz Lawrence) - Allman Brown
Indie Singer/songwriter Allman Brown released his debut album 1000 Years in February 2017, and the first single we heard was "Palms", a beautiful folk collaboration with London based singer-songwriter Liz Lawrence. The harmonies between Brown and Lawrence are kind of like a musical hug; with everything underpinned by folk-bordering on a mellow electro-pop, "Palms" is one of those indie tracks that you are going to catch yourself singing for days.
Give "Palms" a listen below:
Honestly, "Palms" is just such a mellow guitar ballad, that just has bits and pieces that edge it's tempo toward a chill electro-pop, but at it's heart, for me, it's all about the way Brown and Lawrence sound together...I just can't get enough of their vocals...
Which means I'm also a sucker for the even more mellow "Sons and Daughters", their first collaboration (and also appearing on 1000 Years--an album that, if you're looking for more really good, relaxed indie folk, you owe it to yourself to check out).
Oh so close to a complete list for the DSD Playlist - Mar 17 , but that's alright...there is over 80 minutes of indie awesomeness available for you right now....not to mention...in case you somehow missed it, here is last months DSD Playlist - Feb 17
Plus, if you're interested, there is also an Apple Music Playlist for the Top 20 Songs of 2016, where I put together my favourite tracks from last year.
Remember, if you want me to expand where I put these playlists beyond Apple Music, you just need to let me know on Twitter, and I'll see what I can do.
