Kenton Hall & The Necessary Measures – ‘Idiopath’

Hailing from Leicester, Kenton Hall & The Necessary Measures have released the superb album ‘Idiopath’. It is an alt-country release that you need to hear this February.

‘Keep It Simple’ opens the 36-track album. It swims into the sonic spectrum, and as the vocals enter, it instantly demands the listener’s attention. In addition, ‘It’s Not Over Yet’ takes disc one in a fresh direction with a funky beat, stunning arrangement and charismatic vocals.

‘That’s More Like It’ opens disc two with a rocky feel and intelligent chordal progressions. Also, ‘Charlotte’ is filled with addictive melodies and a punchy rhythm section. Moreover, ‘She Sang’ is an inviting track with gorgeous harmonies and stunning poetic lyrics.

‘Second Drum’ is a stand-out song on disc three. It is a track that evolves before the listener with gorgeous melodies throughout. ‘Finally, ‘In Summation’ closes the mammoth release, and the excellent songwriting is evident in each track. The string arrangement is divine and will have you reaching for the repeat button.
