ANGUS & JULIA STONE

I choose this band because Angus & Julia Stone are some really good singers -songwriters.

They are a brother-sister duo from Newport of the Northern Beaches of Sydney in Australia. The two of them are some musicians, Angus played guitar and Julia the trumpet.

Angus and Julia's parents are some musicians too since they've been inspired by the songs of their father.

After the breake-up between their parents, Angus and Julia are separated and take some opposites sides. Julia gave some lessons of trumpet and Angus was versatile.

It's just in 2005 that the two brother-sister are in the same town , in the South of America and they decided to get together and to be associate. Then, Angus and Julia began to collaborate on their musical endeavours in 2006 , they wrote many songs. They decided to leave USA to put up London. During they were playing in a bar, one singer of the band TRAVIS saw and help them to recording their first album "A BOOK LIKE THIS " which is made up of :

* Just a boy ,

* wasted ,
* the beast ,
* here we go again , ...

The album debuted at the number one in their native country.

Then they made a "trip" all around the world. It's allowed them to make some other songs and discovered some others countries to reinforce their style. It has also help them to find some lyrics of their trip !

Their types of music are folk, blues, acoustic. I like very much this album because it's calme down and relaxing and I feel good when I heard them.

One after the other, in 2010 , they made a new album very famous : " DOWN THE WAY " which regroups :

* and the boys ,

* Big jet plane ,

* For you ,

* Draw your sword , ....

Their voices are just so amasing and it has been a really big sucess in UK, USA, Australia, French, .. I like very much this new album and the songers are so in harmony !

I've discovered Angus & Julia Stone this summer and i've been surprised by her voice which is not common. Angus also play guitar in all their songs , he pass his emotion like no one does, it's just a such a good band. If you want to heard click :
