intro

Hauntingly tender and perfect second album from Portland, Maine five piece, Seekonk

'Pinkwood' is a second album of laid back grooves by Portland, Maine five piece, Seekonk. This is very much an album of 4 am moments, haunting, eerie and heartwarming all at the same time. Singer Sarah Ramsey's vocals, although crystal rather than husky, tickle down your ears with the lost spirit of Leonard Cohen. At times it is simply mellow, while at other times it becomes lost in the kind of weirdness that can be found in the fields of a David Lynch film. Opening up with 'Love', which is elegantly played, as is all of this, this is delicate as a wet tissue, soft and tender, but very kind in its touch to your skin. A perfect album for the lost, delicate or lonely for the long hot summer nights.
