Just recently I have been introduced to a couple artists I have not heard of before. They are not new, but to me and likely a lot of other people they are new to them. Yesterday I introduced you to Yael Naim and today I would like to introduce you to a great duo called He is We. They have been together since 2008 and have 3 releases, their newest album being My Forever. I had the opportunity to review this album and want to share a bit about the band and how I liked the album.
He is We got together after Rachel Taylor and Trevor Kelly went to work at Ted Brown Music Tacoma, Washington. They both felt like outcasts and spent a lot of time getting to know each other which lead them finding out they were both musically inclined. Their first song together was a track called Such a Beautiful Sound, written at a friend’s house, and the transition from music store co-workers to band mates was a natural next step.
Rachel and Trevor recorded Pardon Me and put it online. At first it only got a few hits a day and then it took off with tons of hits a day. They continued to work on more tracks for a debut album that is where He is We got started.
He is We is an indie-pop band with beautiful and well written songs. They have a fresh feel with Rachel's lovely voice and Trevor playing music it is a great mix. All their songs are pretty upbeat, light and fun. I love that I can play this during the day while my kids are around and they seem to enjoy the album also. No swearing very clean content. I have found it to be a great album to listen to while blogging :)
Take a look at this video of Happily Ever After:
I just love the video is is such a cute video and in the end she does get the Happily Ever After. I am looking forward to more from He Is We.
