MMS Artist Spotlight - She Keeps Bees 'Is What It Is'

Brooklyn duo She Keeps Bees is an act poised for breakout success. Singer Jessica Larrabee, a native of Wheaton, Maryland, has a dusky, expressive vocal quality that draws comparisons to (MMS favorite) Sharon Van Etten, Cat Power, and Heartless Bastards' Erika Wennerstrom. The pair have released their fourth full-length album, Eight Houses, in 8 years. Eight Houses, which came out in September on the indie label Future Gods, is 10-songs and 32-minutes of haunting, gorgeously textured rock featuring Van Etten on backing vocals on a pair of tracks. The video for the album's final track, 'Is What It Is' is austere and beautiful. Check it out.
