After nearly a year or so in the making; Lynhurst have finally given us their latest album "Field Day" - taking their name from a childhood hangout. The three musical siblings have created a blissful and tranquil album that shows off some impressive song writing skills on their part.

Although the album sounds like a collection of songs compiled to make a teenage television drama soundtrack, in this particular case it doesn’t seem to be a bad thing. Each track is as peaceful and packed with emotion as the last, indicating that a lot of personal feelings from the family are being expressed in every song.

Mari Abdo’s lead vocals are soft and soothing enough to take the edge off anybodies hard day at the office, and are complimented excellently by Matt and Jake on keys and guitar perfectly. This album "Field Day" seems to cover a number of meaningful topics ranging from love all the way up to to sarcasm. Although this may not be a good listen for everyone, its definitely a must for appreciators of the song writing art form at its finest. Teaming up with producer Kevin Augunus, "Field Day" is probably best described as a modern rendition of the styling made popular by The Carpenters and The Cardigans.

The band are currently touring the United States to promote this release and they have achieved awards including Teen Artist of the Year Award, and if "Field Day" is anything to go by, this seems to be the taste of things to come.
