If I Was Digital MP3 Album

The Staves, three sisters originally from Watford, England, make their Nonesuch debut with If I Was. The Justin Vernon-produced album was recorded at Vernon's studio near Eau Claire, Wisconsin, where he recorded his 2012 self-titled Bon Iver album. ""The voices are still silken, the sibling harmonies still graceful,"" says the Guardian of the new album, but with ""the music taking thrilling leaps in character and complexity. The Watford sisters’ decision to work with Justin Vernon ... as producer was inspired."" The New York Times says the trio brings ""angelic harmonies"" to the ""consistently daring"" album. Stereogum calls it ""essential listening.""
