Jenny & Tyler

I first became aware of Jenny & Tyler through Duncan posting about the place on them. They are a Christian husband and wife duo who sing what has been called "soul grass" and pop folk etc have been likened to The Swell Season, The Civil Wars, She and Him, Sara Groves ... so, I thought I'd have a listen. I don't love all of it, but some of it I do. You can currently download their latest album on Noisetrade if you'd like to listen.

Here is a live version of a song of their newest album called Abide. You can feel a little obliged to theologically scrutinise things you post on a blog, and I don't know whether it's possible they are being a little Arminian in singing "open up your doors, let the king come in" in the bridge, but I don't think so in this context - it's more about handing over various areas of your life to the Lordship of Christ. I like the sound they have happening here anyway. Enjoy!
