Tupelo Honeys - Tupelo Honeys Salute You

Stockholm-based boy/girl duo of twins Joel and Linn Edin have played music more or less all their lives, and finally released their debut "Tupelo Honeys Salute You" this summer. After their passion for making fresh and unpretentious music was re-ignited by none other than Lily Allen, Tupelo Honeys concocted a mournful but optimistic, lush but intimate album, brimming with allusions to Eggstone, Camera Obscura, Arcade Fire, and the Kissaway Trail. Sub Pop artists Loney, Dear guest on a few songs, along with other friendly cohorts who also lend their talents. The Japanese version has different artwork and two great bonus tracks.
