Sea Of Bees, Barbarossa

The extraordinarily talented Sacramento native Julie Ann Baenziger, better known as Sea of Bees, will be bringing her beautifully idiosyncratic and effortlessly moving vein of off-kilter folk to the UK once again, on the heels of the release of her next single “Gone”, from her critically lauded sophomore album “Orangefarben”, released earlier this year on Heavenly Recordings.

As is coming to be typical of Sea of Bees, “Gone” is a gorgeous slice of offbeat, emotive guitar pop, as instantly infectious as it is deeply affecting. Stunning, concise, uplifting but with a roiling undertow, a song all the more potent when you see Sea of Bees live onstage.
