For the company

"Little May fit in perfectly. The young Sydney trio (Liz Drummond, Hannah Field, Annie Hamilton) make acoustic-based music with minor flourishes - strings that swoop and soar as required, tinkling piano, electronic touches to keep things vaguely edgy - and their self-titled debut EP was a runaway underground success. So, much anticipation has surrounded the release of For the Company, produced by the National's Aaron Brooking-Dessner. By most objective measures it's a good record, in the sense there's nothing obviously wrong with it. It's well made, pleasing to the ear and just about guaranteed to be a hit, barring a poorly timed asteroid strike or a sudden shift in the cultural zeitgeist, which seems unlikely".
