Anyone heard this Icelandic trio, Samaris? They just popped up on my YouTube home screen yesterday. Great synth player, and the clarinetist reminds me of Andy McKay’s oboe and sax playing on some early Roxy Music songs. Nerdgasmic fact: clarinet melody very close to one by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius. She must have picked it up in youth orchestra. Anyway, if you don’t like the music, I think we can all agree that the singer is uber-hot.
Below is a more recent KEXP broadcast that I’ve only watched a bit of. I’m curious to see if they can stay interesting for half an hour.
Bits of The xx, Sigur Ros, and Bjork. I like it!
