about
What do you get when three Danes (2 girls and 1 guy: Marie A. Jensen, Tanja Jessen and Marc Kellaway) take a trip to Sweden with a tape recording, a guitar, and a few other instruments? You get Tender Buttons. This trio features three members of the exquisite Pink Luminous Invocation, and this one-off project is quite special. Tender Buttons is named after Gertrude Stein's impressive book of the same name, and if that wasn't enough, the lyrics are all adapted from her writing. It's a deadly combination and though this release is short, the brevity makes you want to play it over and over again. Simple folk melodies complemented with mouth organ, percussion, and other random instruments, and highlighted by (mostly) female vocals.
