Robert Nichols discovers an album filled with joyous indie pop
Fire Records
Released: 09.09.22
A joyous indie pop caress. Air Waves, aka Nicole Schneit and collaborators, have crafted an album of dreamy delights. No need to complicate when you have a simple musical formula that is irresistible at first bite but then sizzles, soothes and enchants. Just like Nicole’s vocals in fact, rustling like the leaves that she sings so soulfully about. Easy melodies glisten with lyrical jewels. Childhood flashbacks frozen in a scrapbook released to ride across the rooftops, a view of top of the world from a tree house den.
Take a journey of discovery. Totally chilled; sunshine on a cold day; a slow, empowering waltz. A cool comforter. The Dance is an album that demands to be played again and again and again.
