Here at Aesthetes Anonymous we’ve been chugging along at a
hard charging pace of late, courtesy of all the rollicking blues rock thrashers
that have been endlessly screaming through our speakers, so the gorgeous folk
of Melbourne’s Brighter
Later is a welcome change of pace.
Their debut single “The Woods” is the brainchild of the
multi-talented Jaye Kranz and features the magical serenity of an enchanted
forest. Like the mythical creatures of the woods, Kranz exudes an alluring cool
and that quiet intimacy found only in the early hours of the morning. Throw in
some jazzy riffs, beautiful chants, and some lushly textured soundscapes, and
you’ve got some serious indie folk. While others have frequently likened Brighter
Later to “Beach House gone folk,” for some reason I keep hearing Art of Noise’s
“Moments in Love” playing endlessly in my head.
Have a listen below and be sure to check out their debut
album, The Wolves, which is expected
to drop early this year.
