Buenos Dias ‘Speakerz’!

We really hope that you enjoy the month’s songs, all taken from our featured posts throughout June 2015 – As usual, our apologies if some of the tracks are missing from the Spotify playlist – some may not have been released yet and some may have been removed from Spotify by the artist/band.

#MellowMonday: The Pierces – ‘I’ll Be Dreaming’

The Pierces Banner

The Pierces are a folk duo consisting of sisters, Allison and Catherine Piece. They are renowned for their folk harmonies and alternative adult pop songs.

Their debut album, The Pierces, came about (in 2000) after a friend sent a demo to a Nashville label.

This particular song is taken from that debut album and although it was never a single release (hence there’s no official video), it’s pure beauty is perfection for a #MellowMonday track. The soft percussion and intricate vocal harmonies are a real work of art and should be admired for their delicacy.

What do you think of this song? Do you appreciate it’s beauty? Have you got any similar songs to share with us?
