专辑简介
Minneapolis-based artist Kristian Melom, working under the Minor Kingdom moniker, recently released his highly anticipated debut record My Back Will Bend. The album, which was recorded over the course of two years at a multitude of intimate and unique locations, allowed for collaboration with some of Minneapolis’s most talented musicians. Tracking most of the songs himself, Kristian captured a deeply personal and identifiable nature that resonates well to a broad audience. The first single, the stunning “Choir of the Lilies” is the record’s profile song, which features songstress Haley Bonar. The entire record delivers dense, melodic orchestration that compliments his whimsical tunes and spacious sound-scapes. Providing a serene take on the singer/songwriter genre his comparisons include: Sun Kil Moon, Wilco and Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy. The songs, often dark and introspective, create a striking scene that invites the listener to focus intently on each word. Minor Kingdom’s style lends itself well to live performances rotating between multiple instrumentation and his stripped down solo show. Melom’s blend of alternately confident and shy stage presence reveals a richly talented singer/songwriter who is a welcomed addition to the Minneapolis music scene.
