Amandine - Solace in Sore Hands Music CD

'Solace in Sore Hands' is AMANDINE's sophomore album, featuring eleven new bittersweet songs, purveying a more extensive sonic palette. Their influences take in SONGS: OHIA, THE BAND, early REM, and CROSBY STILLS NASH & YOUNG, to name a few, and their music appeals to fans of alt country/ Americana/indie. 'Solace in Sore Hands' is broad in scope, highlighting a leaning towards folk music and minimalist, heart rending composers such as ERIK SATIE. Now augmented by violinist KRISTINA LUNDIN, the songs on the album cut loose more freely and bear rougher edges than those of it's predecessor, 'This Is Where Our Hearts Collide'. 'Solace in Sore Hands' displays a further refined take on Amandine's already poignant lyrical content, covering themes of forgiveness, redemption, and moving on in the wake of hardship.
