"Blue Hours" shows all its qualities on first impact, but subsequent listens are addictive. Indeed, it is difficult to detach one's CD player's laser beam from the 2022 recording work of the British duo Bear's Den, founded in 2012 by Andrew Davie (vocals and guitar) and Kevin Jones (vocals, guitar and drums).
Sagacious breezes of folk music and an effective compositional vein make "Blue Hours" a prized artistic artifact.
