FellowFish is releasing its album today, 3 March. Lead singer and writer Keith Anthony is accompanied by Christophe Ladret on percussions/drums and Kristian Vella on guitars, together, this core trio present their self-titled debut album, FellowFish.

The album is a mix of influences ranging from Al Jarreau’s smooth groove to Jeff Buckley’s melancholic melodies. Take this Hand pays homage to the 1930s delta blues era, while Candles in the Sand is a waltz with a lyrical taste of hope. The closing song The Bench is all about watching the world go by with music evoking the whirl of life’s madness.

FellowFish is an original offering to the alternative scene, a mixed bag of characters and musical influences including folk, pop, funk, metal and blues which are incorporated into their sound. Born in Lyon, New York and Valletta, FellowFish found themselves on the tiny Mediterranean island of Gozo.

As a live trio they interpret their tracks into a more up-tempo and driven feel to the album versions. Christophe’s experience in world music and rhythms infuses a more varied/alternative backbone to the band. Kristian’s background in metal and classic rock gives a warm yet gritty feel with an often edgy contribution to the wave of sound.

Their new single Happiness?, a fun hip acoustic dance track, is set to hit the waves today coinciding with their album release. To view their live performance, follow the following links.
