A meditative and endlessly turning clutch of songs, She Keeps Bees' Kinship reasserts the band`s elegant power in a stream of loss and regeneration.

With Larrabee and Andy LaPlant`s first album in four years, She Keeps Bees peels away their distorted guitars and fills the void with hypnotic organ, keyboards, strings, a tight bed of drum grooves, and a direct lyricism full of with wisdom and intention, emerging through Jessica Larrabee`s focused, empowered voice.

Kinship is an album that radiates its messages with deft knowledge and immeasurable strength.
