FARRIS' latest review says they are the next thing for the alternative rock scene in Holland. (www.thebluesalone.nl/2013/03/10/far...ve-rock-scene/). This review is based on their album release, "WE ARE CREATURES". FARRIS melds diverging influences of its band members including blues, latin samba, hard rock, new wave, and mellow acoustic sounds while maintaining the importance of lyrics and highlighting Kathleen's unique, compelling voice. FARRIS' release, "WE ARE CREATURES" came out March 9, 2013. Four of the twelve songs directly speak about political issues including, "Chased to Heaven" a gospel and reggae inspired song about the Sudanese Lost Boys escaping civil war and "The Dam" a full-on rock song which creates a metaphor between the US and a dam blocking the flow of a river. "Tu Eres mi Vida" is a world music-driven raucous ride with horns and multiple percussion sections blending many languages. Listen carefully to the remaining songs which touch on predestination, buddhism, love, death, and reincarnation including the alternative rock title-track, "We are creatures", highlighting a philosophy that Kathleen holds dear - that we are all united under one sky. ...find us: www.farrisband.com ...read our lyrics "Let's Begin Again" Everybody look around you did you see that man passing by no time to look left or right what's the point if you don't see the sky Everybody look around you do you see the world passing by it's moving so fast round us what's the point if we don't see the sky if we don't see the sky Only one way in only one way out open your heart friend let the sun mend and if you have a doubt take a look around it will all make sense when we begin again Everybody wake up this morning shed the skin that holds you back clean the shelves inside your mind lean back and notice the sky Everybody look around you do you see the world passing by it's moving so fast round us what's the point if we don't see the sky if we don't see the sky Only one way in only one way out open your heart friend let the sun mend and if you have a doubt take a look around it will all make sense when we begin again
