There’s no shame in being sincere – just look at Please Ask For Paul’s latest single, “The Dove.” The track’s folk-tinged indie rock is dreamy and cinematic in all of the right ways.
Singer Marlo Smith’s ethereal vocals float above a bed of thumping drums and bass and sparkling guitars. But it’s also a deeply genuine song, unconcerned with pretense and focused solely on transporting the listener to a gorgeous, sprawling soundscape.
