BAEBLE CONCERTS: Inlets at Music Hall of Williamsburg

The first thing worth noticing when Inlets take the stage and begin to play is their quiet and contemplative demeanor. This band isn't here to rock you or make you dance. They are here to make you feel. And if you begin to sway along the way, well that's just the result of good music. Led by Sebastian Krueger - who's pure and soft voice permeates every song - Inlets provide beautiful, often solemn melodies through the use of guitar, bass, keys, and drums. To that, bits of banjo, brass, and toy piano also nuzzle their way into the mix. But Inlets' truest bits of beauty stem from those moments when several voices combine as one to form some of the most gorgeous vocal harmonies one could ever hope to hear.

Performing a combination of songs off of their debut EP Vestibule and a soon to be released new album, Inlets proved to be the perfect way to warm the room, and any chilled bones in the process. - Greg Lozoff
