Biography

"It's like being intimate with total strangers." That is how Rachel Stolte of Great Northern describes the feeling of performing live and creating a connecting with her audience. The sentiment could be duly applied to the band's latest release, Remind Me Where the Light Is, on which Stolte and co-writer Solon Bixler pour so much of themselves into their highly personal lyrics and wistful melodies.… Read more in Amazon's Great Northern Store

4.0 out of 5 stars Ethereal, contemplative, polished., June 27, 2007
By Lavode (Sacramento, CA USA) - See all my reviews
Great Northern sounds a great deal like Elliot Smith, with a tiny bit of The Cranberries thrown in for good measure. The overall style is mellow, with haunting vocals that are reminiscent of Sun King by The Beatles. The sound is consistent, and the samples available are a good indication of the entire album.

It really is Shoegazing music, but the vocalists are too powerful to be firmly put in this category.

If there is any criticism worth a one star deduction, it is that the music itself, while well orchestrated, is a bit simple. Contrast that with Smith, who threw a lot of goings on behind his melodies, and made for far more interesting compositions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sonic Wizards, December 9, 2007
So, I was working my way down Nic Harcourt's top ten album list for 2007. Lots of good music but nothing I got too excited about until I got to number seven, which was Great Northern. I listened to them live on KCRW and then I listened to CD versions and I was convinced. Beautifully produced, with great harmonies and soaring choruses.

5.0 out of 5 stars One Of The Best Of 2007 (Without A Doubt), December 15, 2007
By oxxo (san francisco) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Forget about who they supposedly sound like or how complex/simple their music is/isn't, just buy it. An astonishingly solid debut that has easily become my most played disc of the year, especially "Low Is A Height".

Also available (only from iTunes as of writing) is a new 5 song EP "Sleepy Eepee" plus a bonus album track "Winter"--all worth having.

This is a very refreshing cd. I am totally shocked it's an L.A. Band. I first heard them on KRCW and instantly liked it. I'm happy to say every track is good. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars All frosting, no cake
Gorgeously sung, arranged and produced album, particularly for a (presumably?) low-budget item. But it's all surface beauty, without much else to recommend it. Read more
