"Amazing...probably the folk release of the year" -

"It's rare a singer songwriter album will blow your socks off. It does happen but they're far and few between. This Haruko LP/ CD (the CD is housed in a 12" vinyl sleeve!) on Bracken records is one of said sock blowing off records and I'm now sat barefoot wondering where the fuck my socks are. Haruko is a lady called Susanne Stanglow who currently lives in Germany and there she recorded this album at home over a 3 week period. Throughout the 10 tracks on 'Wild Geese' you'll be treated to some beautifully crafted simple songs which leave their hooks in crippling the ability for any other song to get into your head (until you hear some annoying shite on the radio.... and then you'll want to smash your radios face off). Susanne's voice is delicate and frail, and it's daubed over the guitar plucking with such simplicity you'll be weeping like a baby in no time. I'm not sure what to write about this album to be honest as I think the music just speaks for itself. Fans of early Cat Power will like this as it's not a million miles away from Chan Marshall's earlier more sparse recordings. It's thoroughly delightful and I can see this appearing on a lot of folks end of years lists. That is if they get a hold of one as there's only 300 vinyls pressed so I wouldn't dawdle if you're unsure!!" - Norman Records
"Haruko’s album Wild Geese is now out and available. I got my copy this morning and I’m completely in love with the album. A lot more about the greatness of Haruko in the coming days/weeks, but I can already say that Wild Geese is totally captivating and the most beautiful album of the year so far." - One Chord To Another
Just dropping by to say Hi and see what you’re up to and how you are doing.
