My Favourite Things Record Release

Brooklyn's My Favourite Things offer you a window into their dreamy world of hushed lullabies, warm whispers and enchanting melodies. Their songs sound like paper-cut distant villages, cloud mountains that brush up against the ether and evergreen forests punctuated with sly yellow eyes blinking out towards you between the hulking live oaks. The delicate compositions swoon and bathe the listener in an aural watercolor wash that evokes a picturebook of all the places you visited when daydreaming as a child and never thought you would return to. Autoharps and vibraphones weave in and out of sometimes complex, sometimes shredding guitars, a grounding bass and the ever intricate beat of the drums.

Led by multi-instrumentalist Dorothea Tachler (voice, guitar), My Favourite Things perform live as four or five piece featuring prominent musicians plucked from the buoyant New York scene; Yusuke Yamamoto (vibraphone, synthesizer), Daru Oda (voice, keys), Michael Figgiani (bass) and Yoshio Kobayashi (drums), transporting transfixed audiences from their chaotic built up urban environments to a twilight world of their favourite things.
