Thousands

Sound of Everything

Thousands came to Bella Union’s attention via Fleet Foxes’ guitarist Skye Skjelset and the duo are both members of Seattle’s underground scene.
'The Sound Of Everything' is one of the gentlest, most tender records you’ll ever hear; just two entwined voices, exquisite acoustic guitar and a occasional harmonium. At times the music of Thousands echoes Fleet Foxes’ hymnal beauty. But the overriding feel shares some of the hushed simplicity of Elliott Smith and Simon and Garfunkel, fused to the finger-picking dexterity of John Fahey and Bert Jansch.
