Big Crown Records is proud to present ‘Float Back To You,’ the debut full length album from Holy Hive.
Homer Steinweiss, the Brooklyn based soul/funk drummer, always had a soft spot for folk music. Paul Spring,
a young idealist folk singer traveling the country with his guitar,
always had a beautiful falsetto in his back pocket. A family
introduction would lead to Homer producing a few solo records of Paul’s, which would eventually lead to the creation of Holy Hive. The two enlisted Joe Harrison on bass and started out recording their first tunes as a group. A tour with soul legend Lee Fields would
turn out to have an unexpected effect on their sound as they played
their material to crowds of soul fanatics looking to dance. It was this
realisation that forced the next step in their evolution and gave birth
to a sound unique to Holy Hive, a sound that walks a line so perfectly it necessitated a new genre, Folk Soul.
Homer has been drumming professionally since 2000 and has provided the back-beat to records by Amy Winehouse, Bruno Mars, The Jonas Brothers, and Lady Gaga to name a few. He has toured the world over with soul acts like Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings and The Arcs. With all of that under his belt, Holy Hive is the first band that is truly his own and you can hear that it is close to his heart. Paul
is from a small town in Minnesota where he spent his formative years
studying Ancient Greek mythology and practicing classical guitar. He
toured the states for years with only the company of his guitar, playing
solo shows to make ends meet and occasional library gigs promoting his
self-released children’s record, Home Of Song.
The symbiotic relationship of Homer and Paul has been likened to that of an Oxpecker and a Black rhino. Paul’s delicate falsetto and fluttering guitar rests atop Homer’s brawny drums in perfect harmony. There are many levels to Holy Hive; some
of them show up on the surface but some of them are like the album’s
title track; you listen to a gorgeous love song only to find out later
it’s about coming home to your cat. This is perhaps the most telling of Holy Hive, they are easy to like on first listen but spending time with their music will reveal a much deeper experience.
