The lyrics express longing and regret, set against music that's more positive, not quite poppy. The best comparison I can make is with Mazzy Star: Whistler is similar in spirit but less completely dark, and much more likely to stick in your head. I bought this on a lark and have been really happy with it.

Well, i wasnt expecting much from this CD.... but, this being from an ex EMF member, i took my chance... And i must say i am far from being disappointed. It is a cross between folk and celtic music, with a hint of pop and R&B.... There are some great tunes & melodies, a beautiful lead female voice...

Just buy it !

i bought whistlers debut album,on the back of owning faith in the morning which is a brilliant album and that it was being flogged on amazon for a bargain price(sorry whistler you won,t be retiring on the royalty cheques from these sales).
the album kicks off with, if i give a smile,whistler have a penchant for simple melodic tunes,and if i give a smile is typical whistler,you will be humming or whistling it for weeks,very catchy,very uplifting.
with songs like dont jump in front of my train and my favourite track pulling the strings,this is a great accoustic album,brilliantly produced
which will be played to death by me for a long time.
if you like your indie/accoustic music chilled buy this album,you will get a bargain and a great album ,at both the same time

If you're reading this, you're thinking about buying this album. Which means somehow you've heard OF Whistler.. (or Ian Dench or EMF, but whatever).

The melodies on this cd are amazing. The female voice is soft and harmonic. Just go ahead and buy it.

You won't regret it. And while you're at it, pick up their second cd, Faith in the Morning as well. You won't hear anything like this again.
