"Seafret have been garnering a huge fan base, with over ten million Spotify streams and have previously supported the likes of Hozier, Kodaline and James Bay. Similarities between those artists can definitely be noted on this album: 'Breathe' calls to mind Kodaline's hopeful and moving romanticism ... As standalone singles, perhaps more of the tracks on `Tell Me It's Real' would hold a greater emotional impact but nevertheless there are moments of real beauty on Seafret's album. The sparse simplicity of the intricate guitar picking and emotive lyrics create a euphoric, wave-like quality to transport the listener to a seaside town and recall moments from troubled relationships to defiant declarations of love. To Seafret's already large fan-base, `Tell Me It's Real' will deliver more of the delicate emotion that they love, however, for the undecided listener, a little more variation and experimentation wouldn't go amiss".

"Often defined as a soft mist that comes in from the sea, Seafrets debut album Tell Me It's Real features the musical equivalent, with an abundance of rolling rhythms and breezy chords. Although only their first LP, each track is crafted with a subtle air of sophistication that radiates from the simple chord use, to the intricacy in the lyrics ... Tell Me It's Real is an album that's all too easy to get lost in, with each track invoking as much emotional pull as the last. Although a touch repetitive when played on a loop, each song shines alone, Seafret have certainly figured out their sound".
Vurdering 4/5.
