Having met at an open mic night in Seattle in 2009, the members of The Head and The Heart discovered a shared love of vocal harmonies and rootsy instrumentation. They immediately began making music together and released their debut soon thereafter. They’ve since been signed to the Subpop Records label and that debut has been re-released. What we have here is quiet, thoughtful lyrics backed by spot-on harmonies and commendable production which adds up to a pleasing, piano-driven folk-pop sound. Rebecca Ruth
