acoustic 'Kings of Convenience'

English translation: acoustic album "Kings of Convenience"

English term or phrase: acoustic 'Kings of Convenience'
'Dreams' is possibly the perfect title for this album of subtleties, folk-esque guitars and sublime melodies. WBA are a little like the Norah Jones of the alternative world; dinner party music but with substance, feeling and talent. Taking another step away from the acoustic 'Kings of Convenience' and a far cry from his electronic solo debut 'Øye' has stripped down to one guitar, one bass, drums and vocals being the focal point of all the music.
