Review

Let’s talk about "Blindfaller" by Watchhouse, a journey through rich folk and Americana terrain. Released in 2016, this album showcases a kaleidoscope of warm fiddle, earnest mandolin, rustic banjo, and gentle guitar—all woven beautifully together. These melodies paint a vivid sonic picture, blending the comforts of home with the thrill of exploration.

Then we’re whisked away by stories—heartfelt tales spun with finesse in songs like "Hey Stranger" and "Wildfire." These tracks showcase Watchhouse’s lyrical storytelling prowess, the kind that makes you pause and reflect. And let me not forget "Picking Up Pieces," a ballad that highlights snug harmonies, wrapping you in its warmth and bringing a tear or two—Watchhouse has a way of making feelings feel like first hugs.

The clarity in production ensures each instrument coexists harmoniously while transporting us to a crystal-clear porch gathering of old friends and sweet nostalgia. Clocking in at 39 minutes, you’ll find each second worth the relish, creating a tight-knit album that binds seamlessly from track to track, embarking listeners on adventures through tales of love, loss, and lifetimes unfolding. Watchhouse clearly showcases their delightful, conversational musical partnership, enthralling us all thoroughly in this charming work. - Maggie
