Sambassadeur’s “Migration” is a delightful Indie Pop treat, influenced by music from the early 60’s to new wave, modern alternative, and beyond.  The soothing vocals and cheery melodies create a nostalgic, feel-good daydream.  This album bursts forth with strings, guitars, and electronic elements, creating an engaging experience.

The album opens with “The Park”, an infectious song with an irresistible presence. The creative lead guitar and driving forces make for a great opening track.  “Subtle Changes” continues the upbeat pace, putting a smile on even the most cynical listener. The mood slows with “Falling in Love”, a dreamy piano driven trip, exploring love and devotion.  Migration picks back up with “Final Say”, a throwback to great new wave tunes of days long past.

Anyone who enjoys Club 8, Acid House Kings or the Cardigans would be missing out if they passed on this inventive release from Labrador Records. Sambassadeur successfully combines elements from various genres to create a dazzling display of talent and heart. -Jess Hanna
