Al Lewis & Sarah Howells

The Story so Far.............. "London can seem like an intimidating place, especially when you come from a small Welsh town. Maybe that's why Al Lewis and Sarah Howells make such a good team. Through either fate or coincidence, Al (from Abersoch) and Sarah (Milford Haven) met on the tube one night, traveling home from separate acoustic shows. Having both only recently moved to London, they decided to keep in touch. Jam sessions turned to writing sessions which resulted in a number of London shows together and the Skin and Bones EP due for release 15/06/09. With a sound that echoes the classic songwriting of the 70's (Tim Buckley, James Taylor), but delivered in a modern style (Bon Iver, Sufjan Stephens, Cat Power), the big city is already holding much promise for the girl and boy from Wales." Press Quotes:- Acoustic Magazine, (August 09) ".....the songwriting on these five tracks is delicious, the playing is near perfect, an exceptional EP.." Buzz Magazine, Cardiff (June 09) "...Al Lewis can write radio-friendly melodies in his sleep. It's promising stuff..." For Folks Sake (June 09) "....The five songs on this EP are simple, melodic, gently uplifting, and terribly infectious. Just exquisite." Maverick Magazine (July 09) ".....Gentle harmonies which recall the hey-day of Simon & Garfunkel and Bread; lush acoustic based musical arrangements and literate songwriting all adds up to a must hear CD..." R2 (Rock n Reel) (July 09) "....A cut above the average singer/songwriter."
