LISTEN: Amor de Días (feat. Alasdair MacLean of The Clientele) - "Bunhill Fields"


MP3: Amor de Días - "Bunhill Fields"

Whispered magic. Lupe Núñez-Fernández sings in a charming, breathy tone that's both welcoming and slyly melancholic. The electronic beat that backs the acoustic guitar, cello, and brass instrumentation starts off simply enough before picking up the pace; it's like a gentle breeze that becomes a strong wind, carrying you through the Bunhill Fields.

Amor de Días is Alasdair MacLean, frontman for The Clientele, and Lupe Núñez-Fernández of indie pop duo Pipas. Their debut album, Street of the Love of Days, is set for release on May 17th through Merge Records. Dream pop duo Damon & Naomi guest on the album, and Amor de Días just happen to be going on tour with the group. Scope the dates and the debut's tracklisting after the hop.
