Selja Sini = Cate Le Bon + Rilo Kiley
Selja Sini is a local husband-and-wife duo and power couple. Selja Felin Engar of Finland and Brett Engar of Utah created this indie-folk EP, Back Home: six tracks beautifully composed with the ukulele, percussion and a hint of electric fringe—everything as soft as the hum of Selja’s voice. Each track surpasses the next, dancing through moments of hope and reverie. Slower tempos and wondrous, transfixing songs and upbeat tracks like “We Ran” affirm the epic tragedy of this album: There are only six tracks. –Lizz Corrigan
