Ross R Coupland
More on: Ross R Coupland
Harmonious guitar and whispering lyrics make up Mr Coupland's sound. This is eerie and poignant music, delicate and thought provoking. Have a listen for yourself and your thoughts too will be taken on a poetic bent as you attempt to provide a mental description of what you're listening to.
The gentle twang of Coffeee Dream contains a harmonica reminiscent of the one that opens Neil Young's "Out On The Weekend" and it's lonesome sound conveys a tale of longing as the flaws in a relationship, open out revealing a deep chasm between two people who are no longer able to find a commonality.
Little Leaves is a gentle crafted guitar led ballad with the artist gently humming over the tune but the real tour de force of the current selection has to be Fallen. Eerie, mystical and other worldy, it's juicy stuff and has that certain quality of a great song in that it's one that you keep playing over and over again. The chorus has a certain campside quality and will have you singing along.
Coupland's music is acoustic, melodic heaven, whether there is further weaponry in the arsenal and faster tempo tracks with a simliar magic exist, is a question waiting to be answered and might even be a question that needs not be answered... In the meantime sit back and enjoy the impressive quality of the work currently on offer.
