Wrapping up the hot week with an all new edition of Artist Spotlight! Today, we have a terrific Boston based group to discover called Tales of Olde. The band consists of Lucas Cortazio on lead vocals and guitar, Capen Evans on backup vocals, Ellen Melissa Story on fiddle, Drew Alan Story on guitar, Jeff Kinsey on bass, and Al Cleveland III on drums. The band has a pure, unadulterated folk based sound similar to the likes of Fleet Foxes with an ambient approach that works extremely well, and utilizes the power of Lucas's lead vocals to its highest potential and leaves you with an indelible impression of the group and all their musical abilities. I was amazed with the overall simplicity of their sound, and how they didn't try too much musically to allow the audience to join along with the breezy melodies and inspiring lyrics that make the band quite easy to enjoy and perfect to relax to on this hot summer day. A terrific local band that is definitely deserving of some plays in your music library. Some recommended tracks for you to check out include "Your Glory" and the band's cover of Justin Timberlake's "Pusher Love Girl".
