coutesy of Manchester music
By Manuel Ecostos
Hughes and Irving are the duo behind the contradictorily named I Am Three. This relatively gargantuan collection of 20 tracks wrestles with acoustica, underground jazz and a bohemian, almost gypsy punk folk, sometimes hitting each flavour in succession, sometimes all at once. It's warmly recorded with a demo styled enthusiasm, bringing out a live perspective that still accommodates their combined, multi-instrumental talents. Often seen grappling an acoustic guitar and a double bass, this LP is their musical family album. There are soundbites and out-take sounds along the way, as well as genuinely funny moments, as we join them on a trip of busking that would be as entertaining in a box car as it would in an intimate café bar. Like their name, this duo add up to quite a bit more than the sum of their parts.
