MP3: Ane Brun - Rubber & soul

Of the many female singer/songwriters to make waves in Sweden this past year, Ane Brun never really captured my attention. Sure, I listened to her records in passing, but they never left any sort of lasting impression. That is, until "Duets" came out. I always like projects like this because they seem so fun for everyone involved. They are also a great excuse for an artist to stretch their repertoire and try new things without the pressures usually associated with an album release. Ane's voice really shines on this collection's song selection and bare-bones arrangements. There's an interesting variety of duet partners, too. Teitur's quiet, hesitant voice on the track I've selected for posting today is the perfect male counterpart for Ane's oohs and ahhs. Nice stuff.
