Sound of Aarhus: IF you like alternative music such as Sun Kil Moon, Jose Gonzales or Bon Iver, you’re attention is needed here. Nordic Music Review: This is an artist we have not given enough attention to over the last 3 years. Sometimes so much is thrown in our direction that we don't have time to stop, think and appreciate, and 'Calming River' is a songwriter that you just need to find that quiet 10 minutes to consider and enjoy. Overblown: Captivating and possessing significant emotional heft. We Love That Sound: He plays guitar so incredibly well. Destroy Exist Indeed calming and indubitably enchanting.
