Alms #music – @almsmusic

PRESS QUOTES

“They really caught my attention, I’ve been obsessed with their myspace all week…a real taste for melody, something more than just traditional folk.” – BBC Introducing

“…their music creates a rich atmosphere, where every pluck of a banjo or double bass string adds a little more to the mix, each song possessing a kind of gentle lilt that carries you through but refuses to rush…Alms are defined by their honesty – honestly emotional, honestly human and, honestly, they’re wonderful.” – Music From A Green Window

“If you cross-bred Mumford & Sons with Fleet Foxes, I imagine that Alms is what you’d get…certainly one of the most interesting bands I’ve heard of late.” – The Blue Walrus

“great lyrics and all round a great vibe” – Fresh Meat Friday on The Meatysauce Review

“Such a great find…all I want to do is listen on loop this evening” – Come Pick Me Up

“I’m such a sucker for songs with pretty lyrics and I just have to say, oh-my-gosh—I am in love with this new track from Alms. The lyrics, everything about the instrumentals…just lovely! ” – The Most Music

About peter

'Death by Sushi' Fish can kill me. When I was very small (maybe 3 or 4 years old) my grandfather, who lost the sight of one eye from a bullet fired by a German sniper (fortunately not a very good one) during the Battle of the Somme in World War 1, wiped my face with the corner of his apron, an apron he had used to wipe his filleting knife on. He was a grocery shopkeeper who specialized in wet fish.
