From Wellingtonian outfit Eb & Sparrow is a honeyed, smokey, foot tappin’ treat for the ears. Led by Ebony Lamb, the five-piece lay down whole-hearted, deep-hued, visceral tales in the Americana-country-folk-blues vein, with such beautiful warmth and fragility you’re hooked from the first glide of lap steel to the last soaring, vocal phrase.With a voice that slides between the husky depth of Cat Power (Kimbolton, Loaded Gun) and the lilting twang of Gillian Welch (Liberator), Lamb has a captivating vulnerability as she dives into personal triumphs, tragedies, and ironies.
