Local Natives – Hummingbirds
Local Natives are back again with their new album ‘Hummingbird’. It was one of the most anticipated albums of this year and it is definitely going to live up to its name. It’s a carefully compiled album and the first track ‘You and I’ sets the tone for the rest of the album. Their music is unique. Hyperactive drumming and soulful vocals are what make them stand out, giving the album an ambient vibe. The Local Natives are relatively new to the music scene and are still in the process of perfecting their sounds. Hummingbird is proof that they have worked hard the in the past three years to improve and that’s shown in the album. They sound confident. They haven’t experimented much or moved out of their comfort zone but at the same time they don’t sound the same, in fact, they sound better than ever.
