Diandra Reviews It All

If you have seen my Hunter And Wolfe interview, then you know I feel they are beautifully, “millennially”, but they are also smart. Their performance on stage brought out aspects of their person that stands out even when you are hanging out with them: intelligence and intuitiveness. I loved that the men you meet are the ones that play for you, which made their concert a genuine joy. Between joking that he was about to do some Jazz Standards or discussing his nervousness to drink before a show, Michael Maffei had both the voice and charm to capture an audience, while Sundeep Kapur keeled and wailed on the guitar to prove that duos can be stronger that solos.

Let us be frank! It can seem more charming to be a solo artist. More money, more fame, and praise of yourself, but Hunter And Wolfe prove the magic of creative partnership. Sundeep’s keys and chords burgeon a bigness to Hunter And Wolfe’s sound that clashes with their words on how small a person can feel. From older tracks like, “Woe Is You” to the introduction of newer songs from their upcoming album, Late Than Ever, it was clear that their music has grown in purpose/ presentation. Hearing the differences between earlier and newer works was like going from plain lemonade to Half & Half. Yes, I know that is a strange comparison, but growth as an artist is also growth as a human being, which, in their case, means they have become more interesting. As In our interview, Hunter And Wolfe were open that lyrically and sonically, their newest work was about stepping up and forward in their personal search to inner stability; something that Maffei’s voice etched with charm and urgency. Every lyric he squints and squirms in both voice and guitar as if he were being squeezed dry for all he can musically offer. He stretches his mouth and closes his eyes as if God were pulling out every thought he could not say without a beautiful sound to accompany it. You realize the power of music as his self-expression because, in between songs, he is humorous, self-deprecating, and seems quietly observant. He is like the guy in a party that sticks to the corner, but, when someone approaches him, he is the friendliest human being and conversationalist. That dynamic allowed the outpour of sentiments and ranging pitches to strike the crowd like we were dozens of bells waiting to be awakened with rings.

It seems pretty obvious that I like Hunter And Wolfe, but, more importantly you will too. If you watch their video performances on youtube, I admit, they do not do half the justice of their live performance. Again, you walk out feeling like their show was a serener version of the term epic. With other, talented guests like, Madam West, to offer a chorus and harmony that really amped the soul bites and brims of their music, Hunter And Wolfe have the recipe for huge success, and I hope you have the time to give it to them.
