In Their Words: “Emily Hines and Henry Park were so laid back and easy going when they arrived that when they started strumming a few open chords, it just felt like hanging out with some old friends. The songs themselves were like a warm hug. Every tune is melodic and woven to draw you in. Each song seems simple in its structure, but really melodically captivates the listener.
“Henry’s accompaniment is thoughtful and multidimensional. The fact that they recorded their upcoming album on an old school Tascam 4-track tells you that they’re all about the music and the songs. Truth be told, their music definitely holds its own without any bells and whistles.” – Julie Tan, AEA Ribbon Mics
