Sylvan Esso: 'Coffee,' Live On Soundcheck

Hear the entire session and interview: http://bit.ly/1iQ8fuc The best collaborations bring a push and pull that forces each member out of their comfort zones, and charts new territory they may not have ventured by themselves. Case in point: Sylvan Esso, the new project from singer Amelia Meath, of the mostly a cappella Vermont folk trio Mountain Man, and Nick Sanborn, of the North Carolina rock band Megafaun. Unlike those more guitar-based, acoustic-leaning groups, Sylvan Esso takes a stylistic leap, veering a hard left toward minimal electronic music and taut synth pop. And with their superb self-titled record, Meath and Sanborn perfectly encapsulate that creative spirit of collaboration, equally showcasing their individual talents, and creating a synthesis of their group's respective sounds in a new way. With tracks like "Play It Right," and the album's best single, "Coffee," Sylvan Esso best demonstrates its alluring and spare sound: Meath singing amid Sanborn's woozy hooks, chiming synth sequences and laptop beats.
