MAYFAIR /swan dive



MYSPACE OF SWAN DIVE


Mayfair has a heart full of hope and a shoe full of rain,” says Bill DeMain, one half of the pop duo Swan Dive. “As with all of our records, there's a feeling of uplift and optimism, tempered with an undertow of melancholy.


Swan Dive這是一支來自美國納什維爾的雙人樂隊。成立於1993年。由女主唱Molly Felder和音樂人Bill DeMain組成。雖然來自美國的民謠之都。在Swan Dive的音樂裏殘留著法國香頌的味道。女主唱 Molly Felder 清澈的嗓音和熾熱的情感如夏日的清風般令人沉醉。毫不做作的慵懶與性感在柔緩的清新吉他中傾瀉出來。詠唱著愛情的真摯與無奈。


The album’s rockabilly-flavored opener, “Down On Love,” certainly supports that outlook. Over fingersnaps, upright bass and rolling piano, Felder delivers a tongue-in-cheek, heart-on-sleeve look at the reversal that Spring can pull on even the most jaded lovers. 


The sunny day-cloudy day feeling continues throughout the baker’s dozen of songs, from the kissing-close intimacy of “Topsy Turvy Love” and James Bond-ian sensuality of “Caprice” to the dreamy pop of “New Wave” and Hawaiian-flavored “Under The Palms.” 


Twelve years and nine albums on from their debut, DeMain and Felder are constantly renewing their approach to music-making, adding fresh instrumental flavors such as ukulele, and inviting several first-time collaborators into the mix.
