Sorry for such a delayed post but I've been drowning in midterms and papers and finally can take a breath. Anyways, I have loved Page France for almost 5 years now yet the past few years but haven't been rewarded with anything new. Then, I stumbled on Cotton Jones. I fell in love with Cotton Jones' new single, "Egg On The Sea," and then went to find out more about the band. Turns out they are a two-piece from Maryland made up of Whitney McGraw and Michael Nau, the latter being the brains and leader of Page France. They blend melodic acoustic guitar with simple yet catchy piano, whistling at times, and subtle organ/synths to create unique folk-pop sound.
They have also released two solid albums before the "Sit Beside Your Vegetables" EP. Go check out Cotton Jones as they are currently on your on the East Coast. Since their tracks have been recorded in northern states as well as Georgia, it gives Cotton Jones different perspectives, influences, and sounds. Much of their lyrics are also very optimistic and full of hope, both of which I am for the future of this duo who compliment each other perfectly.
Stay golden,
Brian
