The Jinxes

If You Want

Sounds like: Iron & Wine, Bon Iver, Fleet Foxes
The Jinxes have a beautiful grasp on composing delicate folk gems with ease. Just listen to their single, "If You Want."The song starts off with a cello and acoustic guitar, sort of like a lullaby. Then the girl/guy harmonies comes in, which resonate through the rest of the song. With just a cello, acoustic guitar, and harmonized vocals, this track takes on a delicate orchestral sound, only simplified. The lyrics are easy to follow (and easy to get stuck in your head -- fair warning!). This track has all the attributes that one would look for in a classic folk song.If you'd like to hear more of The Jinxes, mark your calendar for May 10. That's when their Send Me A Sign EP will be released!
