Living Hour - "Bottom Step"

Based in Winnipeg, Living Hour have crafted this gorgeously lush and intricate sound. On their latest single, "Bottom Step," the band bring you a quiet, laid back song that is simply a must hear. Sam Sarty's voice is the main focus, as the song slowly builds and other instruments wander in and out at will. "Bottom Step" reminds me a bit of a more organic version of Mazzy Star. Even though the song does build, it never quite reaches a crescendo and instead ends when it feels it should.

You can listen to "Bottom Step" below. Living Hour's new album, Softer Faces, will be out March 1 on Kanine Records. You can pre-order your copy here. For more on Living Hour, be sure to check out their website.
