Wheeler – “Wheeler”
I wrote about Eddie Wheeler in 2008 here on the blog, and presented some of his music. There were plans of releasing an album in 2009, but what happened instead was that Eddie started a collaboration with musician Henrik Nordahl, aka Hank Wheeler, and the band Wheeler was formed.
Last week they released the debut album “Wheeler”. And it’s an impressive album. They’ve continued to build upon Eddies style with an acoustic, mellow, dark rock, but yet it’s something completely different from what I’ve heard before. Eddie sings his personal lyrics in Swedish and he also sings better than ever before. Or maybe it’s because of the language and it can be felt. Even if you don’t understand Swedish I think you can appreciate it and understand what it’s about.
The sound is largely built upon acoustic guitars and is smoldering beautiful and well produced. It’s partly dark and creates en emotion that acompanies what’s said between the lines, even if we can feel a glimpse of light here and there.
Here below you can help yourself to the first two tracks from the album. Listen more on Wheeler’s site or on Spotify. Wheeler’s also on Facebook.
