Try the Pie is the project of one Bean Tupou who creates
wilting twee acoustic pop that sounds as if Kim Deal was giving you a long
aural hug. Her latest album Rest is
a sweet and tender little record that sounds so twee and fragile that it might
just crumble apart while being listened to.
With barely any production or barely any sheen Rest breaks your
heart with just the vocals of Bean who whimpers and whispers across the record.
There's nothing complicated about Rest but there
doesn't need to be because Try The Pie still comes up with delicious song
concoctions that melt your emotions into a giant puddle of teary goo. Rest is so heartfelt and so genuine
you can't help but love this record. I
can't stand acoustic music but Bean's voice is just so dainty and adorable my
heart melts every time she sings. Rest
is an enjoyable listen of intimate and fragile indie folk. It's not the best sounding or produced but
Try The Pie has some of the most delicately beautiful tunes to come across my
ears in a while. It's not an upbeat or
energetic release but it's a perfect aural valentine and it's filled with a
genuine sense of love. And that, that's
pretty cool
