Sparrow House - Falls [EP]
Sparrow House is a side project of Jared Van Fleet, guitarist/keyboardist for Voxtrot, the Falls EP is his first release. This project however, is not at all like Voxtrot; it is much mellower, much more folk. The music is centered on Fleet’s acoustic guitar; however, most songs feature multiple other instruments as well: Blindfold Waltz, for example, features strings, handclaps, and otherworldly synth sounds. The EP moves slowly, and has a calming effect, it gives one the feeling that everything else can wait. The only thing that matters while this music is playing is the music itself. Despite the repetition of ‘give up’ during the opening song Heart Flood, the melancholic beauty of this EP leaves me feeling refreshed and almost hopeful.
Grade: A-
