Organic, haunting, and relentlessly authentic, VOLORES’ broad appeal lies in its raw channeling of the mortal condition, including mental health struggles, that they’ve not only experienced but experienced together. The album explores universal themes of life, love, and death through dark Americana, stylish post-punk motifs, and disarmingly frank lyricism. Also, it celebrates the shared musical passions that brought the Maxwells together – from Leonard Cohen and Elliot Smith to The Cure and Interpol – through unfiltered expressions that cast deeply personal shadows in plain sight, coated only in intuitive melody and elegant songcraft. VOLORES is Shelby Maxwell (vocals, guitar), Nathen Maxwell (vocals, bass), and Art Brown (drums). |
