"From the very beginning of “Singing Saints Darling”, a flashback of the 1970s came rushing over me. Having been compared to Bon Iver, José González and Bob Dylan, you can hear how Philippe Nash‘s vintage sound incorporates influences of today. From Brighton in the UK, Nash describes his music as “folk/gospel”. His vocals have that airy quality that sounds almost choir-like and ethereal.
While I’ve never been one to listen to gospel music outside of a church setting, I’d listen to Nash any day. I’d listen to the story of “Samson’s Head”, where Nash’s folksy sound shines through with rustic guitar strokes and catchy taps. Listening to the creation of “Adam” against the acoustic guitar and soothing vocals makes you a believer.
Since picking up his guitar for the first time at the age of 13, Nash has sung about God, loss, change, and nature versus man. As thought-provoking as his songs can be, there is something to say for the simplicity in his tracks – the simple stripped down sound and his simple but meaningful lyrics" (Heard: listenbeforeyoubuy.net)
