Song People – Like Somebody Calling Your Name (2024)
Review:
Song People formed in December of 2022 by core members of the Philadelphia-based music collective Edible Onion: Shaina Kapeluck, Darian Scatton, and Benjamin Schurr. Having played in each other's bands for over twelve years, they’ve settled into a comfortable songwriting cabal made fruitful by over a decade of collaboration. Kapeluck, the principal lyricist, pieces songs together from her own treasure trove of past and present writings. Between the three of them, previous musical projects found them playing anything from baroque art songs to electronic kosmische pop, industrial post punk to Georgian liturgical polyphony, but their newest project focuses on songwriting, stripped down to guitar, bass, drums and vocals. Shaina began her music life as a ballad singer, drawing from traditions of the British Isles, the US and Maritime Canada. Darian's rhythmic, arpeggiated guitar melodies are informed by his background as a pedal harpist, and Ben has one foot in industrial post punk and the other in Motown. Formed as a trio, the band recorded their first album with drummer Alfred Rosenbluth, who was recently replaced by composer/drummer Drake Tyler.
Song People’s debut, "Like Somebody Calling Your Name," is a product of ritual, friendship and creative synthesis. After celebrating singer Shaina’s birthday at the Russian bathhouse in Northeast Philly, all three band members contracted covid and spent the following holiday isolating together and creating some of the earliest Song People songs. Soon after, the trio began getting together once a week, cooking elaborate meals, and presenting their song ideas to each other. After adding drummer Alfie Rosenbluth to the fold, they tracked the album with old friend and longtime collaborator Dan Angel at his North Philly studio. The album was tracked live, including vocals, in two sessions, with minimal overdubs to evoke the immediacy of their practices and performances: vivid propulsive hypnotic story songs that work in the city but live in a hollow tree. — bandcamp
