Heres a taste of Billy Momo’s second album “Drunktalk” which was released during Spring. The duo Tomas Juto and Oskar Hovell serve us 15 songs, starting with the splendid “I’ve Got You” that was featured here in the Autumn. The main ingredients are pop, blues and american folk, but that doesn’t stop them from adding some spices from for example Motown or Balkan folk. All in all it’s quite a tasteful, varied menu that leaves me with a laidback feeling embedded in a certain melancholy, whether this is siphoned from the folk layers or from the blues tones. An accomplished album with it’s very own personality. Here are three tracks from the record:
Last week the band Billy Momo released their new single “I’ve Got You”, which is also an announcement of their upcoming album “Drunktalk”. It’s a laidback pop song with a great drive and a pleasant ambience with an air of longing and excitement, a song that sucks you in and seems to be made for running on repeat. Billy Momo was started in 2007 by the duo Tomas Juto and Oskar Hovell, two musicians who have worked before with bands like PH3, Eskobar, Neneh Cherrys Cirkus among others, but on stage the band grows to seven members. They have earlier released the album “Ordinary Men”.
On the 26th of November they are inviting us to the release gig at Debaser Strand/Bar Brooklyn in Stockholm.
