“Last Sight of Land” is from BEE AND FLOWER’s second album, it has grand pianos, old school electronics, wonderfully melodic percussion, a huge dub bass, keyboards, guitars, lap steels, and sweeping vocal choirs. BUT all of that is just words, you really really really need to experience this one.

I really like how it has all been constructed and how Dana Schechter’s minimalist but intense vocals jsut seduce you in. It is like the aural equivalent of a “film noir” detective movie, all fog and misdirection. This really is well crafted and

A bit of hype from the site…

The music of BEE AND FLOWER (Berlin/NYC) envelops the listener into an intimate, luxurious and orchestrated world, filled with moody strings, piano, percussion, ghostly slide guitars, and lush female vocals. BEE AND FLOWER brings together elements of classically-arranged film-score soundtracks with well-crafted rock song writing, creating a bold, unique and fluid style. Lyrically, the songs weave tales of the universal human experience: of hope and heartbreak, of love and living, and of isolation and oblivion.

Recommended, and make sure you check out some of the older tracks on the site as well. There is a lot of good material here.
