Donawhale



Donawhale's self-titled debut and follow up Dive to Blue were released by Pastel Music. Donawhale is your typical rock band – two guitars, keyboards, bass, drums, girl singer – writing layered, textured, beautiful alternative pop rock songs. The opening track, Close Your Eyes, offers good listening advice: Close your eyes, open your ears and settle into this sonic feast without distraction. Stunning, textural guitars create an inviting gateway into a prepossessing musical landscape, extending all the way to album's end. Donawhale's songs are complex and vibrant, multi-faceted and melodically driven. Instruments weave hypnotic tapestries in which one could easily lose oneself. Throughout the album, vocalist Yu Jeon Young shines. She sings with confidence and strength, while the music frames the perfect backdrop for her voice – the common thread that runs through each of the album's thirteen song tapestries. Following this thread, listeners will find themselves being led by the hand through a mellifluous forest of magic and wonder. Read more on Last.fm.
