Something In The Water – Brooke Fraser Something In The Water – Brooke Fraser (Free Download / Buy)

Better shut your windows and make sure your curtains are drawn, otherwise your neighbors are definitely going to catch you bouncing around your house and singing along to Brooke Fraser’s uplifting and adventurous new album Flags. The New Zealand born singer-songwriter has produced her career’s third release with a joy and enthusiasm unrivaled by anyone as of late, debuting in the Top 10 on the iTunes albums chart and #59 on Billboard’s Top 200!

Brooke’s first single “Something In the Water,” one that soars with a memorable melody and irresistibly snappy beats, heads off her glorious new collection of folk rock and pop tracks.  The equally upbeat “Coachella” and “Jack Kerouac” live harmoniously alongside beautifully crafted ballads like “Sailboat” and “Who Are We Fooling (Feat. Aqualung).” There is a tremendous amount of soul and feeling behind every song, and she explains the album as a character study, speaking through stories and viewpoints other than her own. Her sound is arranged in a folky Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros manner, coupled with her piano skills and honeyed vocals the likes of Feist and Sara Bareilles.

While Brooke is busy blazing up the charts internationally, she’s also taking Flags on the road and hitting the United States for a whirlwind tour through the entire month of November and into December.
