Magichour, the self-titled debut release from acclaimed songwriting duo Ian Housten Shadwell and Gemma Deacon is an intricate tapestry of sounds wrapped into dreamy pop songs; Soundscapes infused with a verse chorus wisdom, and a clear love of melody. This is gentle dreamy folk pop. Female vocals with beautiful production. It is cinematic, ambient and widescreen, with a haunting lustre that resonates on the knife-edge of beauty. Saturated throughout with the beauty of Gemma's magical voice, and layered with Shadwell’s production, you have an album that is both lush and luxuriant. Imagine Julee Cruise meeting Feist while saying hello to Aimee Mann. Magichour represents a magnificent return to form for this songwriting duo, the same folks who brought us Cactus Child. Try the catchy track California, the gentle Crazy, or the uplifting No Time To Fall. The album was released in Feb 2010 on Vitamin Records. Magichour are an independent Australian outfit.
