Sometimes less is so much more, and in the case of Sumie’s self-titled debut, the combination of her voice and an acoustic guitar casts the most hypnotic and disarmingly simple spell.
 
Born Sandra Sumie Nagano in Gothenburg, Sweden, she first began recording her songs in 2008, a few years after becoming a mother. Unlike her sister Yukimi, who fronts the electro-pop outfit Little Dragon, Sumie has pursued a solitary and acoustic path. “It was not a style or a sudden choice but more me playing my guitar and having two small children so I could not make much noise,” she explains. “But I also love minimal and delicate music, so that felt like a natural direction for me.”

Tom McRae   You Cut Her Hair

Written and Performed by The Allophones 

If you’re gonna televise it,  something we shouldn’t phrase
it will take a set of lies to get me to celebrate
no way you colorwise paroled him more than a week
on the way to sell the dice you made me believe I should try, I tried…


this is only getting worse, believe me you’re wrong again 
why not just tell the roses gently to sprawl again 
spoke of the watery eyes which you never laid 
on the masters of the light now they  sold you the wrack 

just roll back, I’m falling apart
and we repeat  who’s in the dark
roll back, I’m falling apart, oh oh oh…

hard as you fake it, still you won’t have my back in my disgrace
this shit we’re taught, came out wrong, just save the one who’s gonna struggle with this 

roll back, I’m falling apart
I wanna see who’s in the dark
roll back, I’m falling apart, oh oh oh…
was told that, an ache in your heart 
will make you all lay down your guards
roll back, I’m falling apart

you came along with what your fathers had left you
thriving on all the chaos it’s led to 
you came along with what your fathers had left you, come roll the ill-cut dice (scorned, despised)
strumming on all the wires they’ve set through , come roll the ill-cut dice (scorned, despised)



 

roll back, I’m falling apart
I wanna see who’s in the dark
roll back, I’m falling apart, oh oh oh…
was told that, an ache in your heart 
will make you lay down all your guards
roll back, I’m falling apart
