She Keeps Bees

She Helps to keep Bees certainly are a Brooklyn-based indie rock and roll duo known because of their retro, bluesy audio. Initially the single project of vocalist/songwriter Jessica Larrabee, she recruited manufacturer Andy LaPlant in 2006 to greatly help record her music and he ultimately emerged aboard full-time as the band’s drummer. Their debut LP, Minisink Resort, arrived afterwards that calendar year and was fulfilled using a positive reception, sketching comparisons to performers like Kitty Power, PJ Harvey, Patti Smith, and undoubtedly the Light Stripes because of their stripped-down guitar-and-drums set up. LaPlant’s distinct, atmospheric creation lent itself well to Larrabee’s soulful delivery and solid attitude. An EP implemented in 2007, and in 2008 they released their follow-up record, Nests. Now achieving a wider market, the band installed with United kingdom indie Names Information for the 2009 EP and U.K. discharge of Nests, that they supported using a Western european tour. Commensurate with their D.We.Y. visual, they continued release a their music individually back the U.S., providing their 2011 LP, Drill down On, accompanied by their second 7″ solitary release a yr later. Moving their focus even more toward their folk origins, Larrabee and LaPlant earned maker Nicolas Vernhes (Spoon, Dirty Projectors, Deerhunter) to help with making their fourth recording, 2014’s Eight Homes, that was released on L.A. indie Long term Gods Records.
