After a year of basement zooms and COVID blues “Long Story Short” has finally arrived alive. The first studio album for Alt-Pop Atlantic Canadian band, With Violet, this brilliant record clearly demonstrates the musicianship and camaraderie by the members. Bursting through your airpods, the band leans into the mood with their smash opener, Give My Heart Away. Finessed fun springs to life while the saxophone (Sarah Newel) leads you into that mystic cave of wonders. “Well I want you to know” Sarah’s voice blissfully rings at the start. Uncommon, but a real treat, this record features two lead vocalists. Complimenting the silvery sounds of Sarah is Pete, sliding between falsetto to chest – smooth as “chardonnay.” Although loud and fun you can steal hear a great deal of thought and experience as the band begins smashing through solos (Matthew Cadigan: Venice Beach) and slapping the floor from your feet (Spencer FitzGerald: July Morning) You name it, you can colour it purple too, cause With Violet can “give you what you’re asking for.”<\/p>\n
