Volume 66: Wye Oak

With their new album set to come out this Tuesday (March 8th), Wye Oak's Civilian is going to be one you need to pick up. This male/female duo create a lot of sound for being just a two member group. Obviously a production studio can help with that, but have no fear because the live acoustic version of the title track is just as compelling as its studio counterpart.

As strong as the musical arrangement is, the vocals are right on par. Not straining, not over sung, just beautifully delicate and just right. Up first is the album version followed by the aforementioned live acoustic version for you comparative pleasure.
