Compared to "Between The Buttons"-era Stones, Dylan, and Leonard Cohen, The Dutchess & The Duke's songs mark a turning point for Kimberly Morrison and Jesse Lortz. Each song touts magnetic guitar lines and vocals so straightforward that they belie all other intricacies.
THE PARLOUR SUITE
The Parlour Suite, husband and wife Joel and Inga Roberts, released the Welcome to the Garden Party EP in 2010. The EP consists of five songs, all authentic vintage pop—think She & Him meets Daniel Rossen in the early 1960s. And the term “authentic” isn’t used loosely. It’s clear that Joel and Inga live and breathe this stuff. A little bird told me that they even use a TASCAM tape deck to record. Joel and Inga are two old souls married to each other, and making music that sounds like it’s from another generation.
