MUSIC
VAMALA by Champs are siblings
Michael and David Champion who hail from the lsle of White. This album is the
successor to last year’s debut releases, Down
Like Gold. Opening with hunting
vocals and a similar piano backing, desire is certainly an accurate
representation of a record that is anything but commercial pop. The melodies
throughout the album are enchanting though, with running moving along in a
pleasant manner. Music of Mice & Men Restoring Force Forever Be Upstanding At
The Door is based on a quaint acoustic guitar piece, while the mid-tempo
3000 Miles is engrossing from the first listen. The title track is also worthy
of note, whilst Blood shimmers beautifully both in the chiming guitars and
shining vocal performance. It is unlikely that Vamala will receive wide
exposure and mainstream success, but anyone who takes the time to investigate
the release will find a collection of mature and organic pop songs that are
well crafted and enticing. For listen please click here
