The notion of a duets album is invariably a garish one, but Kes’s upcoming Duets project is primed to be a more than tasteful embracement of the concept. Taken from the all-instrumental LP, Hopper And The Crow is a fragile and affecting pairing of Kes’s (Karl Scullin) sparse acoustic guitar and a haunting turn on the harmonica from arresting vocalist Oliver Mann. It’s like Neil Young’s Heart Of Gold, Dead Man OST and Unplugged rolled into a concise, splendid whole.
