Jesus Christ It's...

Ah Holly Fam'ly
Genre: Americana / Indie
From: Portland, Oregon,
United States

The eight-piece, kaleidoscope-folk troupe Ah Holly Fam'ly formed in the culturally sparse and desperate landscapes of rural Idaho, before packing up for their current home of Portland, Oregon. The paired voices of married duo Becky Dawson and Jeremy Faulkner tow a thematic line between a deconstruction of the sentimental, and a celebration of it.

The band's debut album 'Reservoir' flirts with the memories of youth, where man-made bodies of water built for agriculture and industry became places of recreation. At once fragile and overwhelming, the sophisticated avant folk chamber pop of Ah Holly Fam'ly courses a steady path on 'Reservoir', a place where the past meets the present, where familiarity is concealed by alienation, a sound that hearkens back to the rural Appalachian folk of yesterday, and the avant folk experimentalism of today.

If Sufjan Stevens bungee jumped with Beirut Ah Holly Fam'ly 'Reservoir' would be the sound of their fear.
