Back to the roots

Although my music taste is actually more tending to the underground part of town I sometimes prefer the friendly cornfields outside and so I listen to Folk such as Mumford&Sons.
Recently I downloaded their new album Babel, which is as good as Sigh no more, and still sounds after campfires with marshmallows and guitar music in the nature of North America. No wonder that the London based band has a great fan community in the USA.

Another artist who does a similiar kind of music that also reminds us of our roots and who I really adore is Robert Francis. His debute album Before Nightfall is a masterpiece of music. All songs came to his mind while driving down the West Coast of North America from Seattle to L.A.. The melodies and lyrics came up his mind while driving in the silence surrounded by great nature. This September he released his new album Strangers in the first place. Its songs again prove that Robert Francis always plays and sings with the power from the bottom of his heart and you hear it in every verse that he really packs his own emotions in the lyrics and melodies.
