Music Review: Paul Duncan - Above the Trees - Page 2

This sentiment is carried throughout the tracks and ties the album together, while the unpredictable musical composition keeps it exciting. On "High in the Morning," he balances between musical interlude and lyrics, growing louder as it goes on, and deeper in depth with the buoyant sounds of the cello. He sings "We walk to the shoreline to the end of its reach / and talk about towns that haunt you and me." On "Red Eagle," a true showcase of Paul's talent and the album's opening track, the listener is amazed once again by the intensity of the play between soft and light sounds.

Listen to "Red Eagle" and "The Lake Pt. 2." Be prepared to not want to step away from your computer.

Above the Trees is truly the kind of album that you listen to on repeat, tell friends about repeatedly and check back with them more than once to make sure they have actually listened to at least one song. You may even resort to putting your phone to your speakers and making them listen to it, because you know in the end they will thank you.
