A Fellow Ship
\nThe Black Sheep
\n<\/i>(Riverbed Records)
\n3\/5<\/p>\n

A Fellow Ship, a Toronto band consisting of seven close friends with a love for folk\u00a0music, recently released The Black Sheep<\/i>. Every song on the five-song EP is a great blend of funk and pop with a jazz twist. Smooth and fresh melodies and well-written lyrics combine with great instrumentation, especially by saxophonist John Nicholson and guitarists Joe Dent and Jack Stone.<\/p>\n

The EP is great for people who love pop and jazz, as it has lots of creative ideas on it. However, the vocals are not always smoothly integrated into the beat, and all the songs sound fairly similar. \u201cTurn to Gold,\u201d however, stands out as the catchiest song on this EP because of its vocal and instrumental harmonization.
\nIt\u2019s not perfect, but this album, with its wonderful instruments, is worth a listen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
