Canberra-based folk singer/songwriter Julia Johnson has been collaborating with her seven piece band, the Deep Sea Sirens, since 2005. Seasoned performers, they've become known for their intimate and dynamic shows. After a break of five years since their first album debuted, they've recently released their second, "Family Pets."The album's first single, "Little Surprises," was exactly that when I first stumbled across it. A stirring track, it's full of ebs and flows, with Johnson's evocative vocals assisted ably by the band's well-designed musical arrangements. Vintage recording gear was intentionally used to give the music an authentic feel, and this sentiment really comes to the fore on the single.In summary, this is a great song and you should listen to it "“ I've run out of adjectives for "beautiful."
