New Buffalo – I’ve Got You And You’ve Got Me (Song Of Contentment)
You won’t find much reference to New Buffalo as it seems the main pillar in that act Sally Seltmann has moved on, primarily in a singular direction. Seltmann (best known for co-writing ’1234′ with Feist) released 2 albums under the New Buffalo moniker and ‘I’ve Got You And You’ve Got Me (Song Of Contentment)’ came out on the first one ‘The Last Beautiful Day’ back in 2004. There is so much background to this Melbourne based artist (she’s married to one of the Avalanches, ok, enough) when it is much more arresting to listen to her childlike wide-eyed music. This is as dreamy as slow rambles get, very close to what our own Nina Hynes is capable of, full of off-kilter parts that never distract from the songs main purpose. That’s tonight’s lullaby sorted then. KD
