Song title: Hoedown
Artist: Beaches
Year: 2008
Why I like this song:
So I got that book, 100 Best Australian Albums, and I had a look through out. And one name stood out to me that I had never heard before: Beaches. Apparently they are a five woman guitar instrumental band. Curious I sought out their self-titled album.
And as it turns out, it's exactly what it was: Whilst not a completely instrumental band Beaches still rock hard - perhaps even better than the fellas - and can put in some great guitar work, combing elements from shoegaze and surf rock..
Given this is right up my alley, I wonder why I didn't hear of them sooner...
