Helen Townsend
Is This Love
Australia
 
Americana from Down Under merges the sentiment of both cultures for the musical creativity of the talented Helen Townsend. Known for creating intimate and homely experiences no matter how large the venue she’s given to play, Helen Townsend embarks on a global outreach after conquering her homeland with her charming and great-sounding persona. A unique vibe gives her a leg-up over the heads of many similar artists who seem to rely on the time-tested country cowboy attitude. Helen Townsend offers the womanly opposite of the male-centric and often tired western sound. With her new single, Is This Love, the artist asks the question we all ask from time to time and creates a questioning introspection with her style.
 
A soft melody opens the song with muted keyboard tones. A guitar joins the flow and elevates the melody that casts a gentle sway. The drums begin and the gear changes as the music jumps to a jive with splashing percussion led by a loosely sprung snare. A country composition rises from the vocal as the lines draw images of relationship mirrors that might not be clear. Helen Townsend delivers a cosy and confident range that adapts to the jostle of blues guitar and country melodies. The music takes us through the passages of a love song with a swagger suited to singing along.
