Ben + Vesper

Artist- Ben + Vesper
Album- HONORS
Label- Sounds Familyre


Husband and wife duo who are tight friends with Sufjan Stevens (he plays piano on this) put out their first full-length in four years. It’s not twee like all those other boy-girl duos. This is balanced and well-done freak-folk pop. Often both vocalists sing the same parts together, though “Holly Home?” is more call-and-response. “How You Are” is kind of a nice, drifting tune too.
