[New Song Of The Week] AVEC - Darling
AVEC are from Vöcklabruck, a small Austrian mountain village so small you shouldn’t have heard about it before. Their first single Granny became a small hit last year in her home country, with airplay on national radio, and even ended up getting synced for a tv-spot in Germany. Smart placements in popular (German) Spotify-playlists around themes like relaxing, autumn and coffee made her streaming career grow to the point where she has over 400.000 listeners per month.
Join them in a singer-songwriter universe which will without a doubt appeal to fans of Daughter (she also has a song called Youth weirdly enough). Her mesmerizing soft voice in combination with mellow melodies will bring you in a state between lullaby and daydreaming. These are the voices we’d love to hear to echo through the mountains, in all their mysterious and dark ways.
Earlier this year she played at the Reeperbahn, toured in and out of Germany, and a couple of days ago AVEC and her band played probably the most important showcase event in the Alpine-region, Waves Vienna. We think a place on the Eurosonic line-up would be well-deserved and a logical next step in her mission to get the word out. Let’s hope she’ll be there in January to lighten up the mood. Her album What If We Never Forget is out now, just in time to get us in the perfect autumn mood.
Enjoy!
