‘BROKEN BRIGHTS’
released nationwide July 2012, is the second solo album for Angus Stone, one
half of the duo Angus & Julia Stone, his sister (‘Chocolate and Cigarettes’).
The folk, blues, acoustic rock, singer songwriter has the
quality of storytelling, which echo’s Bob Dylan. Stone brings us clean productions with simple setups which enhance
the tales of love, loss, legends and wisdom with easy phrasing, and simple
melodies.
This album could be classified as easy listening, and it is,
but easy to listen to again and again.
It’s laid back, but it also has elements of Dire Straits, and the hazy guitar
work of Neal
Young, and the phraseology of Jim Morrison and Dylan.
The Australian born Stone, has been playing music since a
very young age, and played in school bands growing up. He is an accomplished
musician on the guitar, harmonica, and mandolin. He and his sister have won
recognition for their efforts, and most recently their song ‘Love will Take You’ earned fame in the
Twilight
Saga movies.
Angus and his sister Julia plan to release a duo album the
end of 2012.
