It's A Joy To Be Alive (Pastel Pink Vinyl)

‘It’s A Joy To Be Alive’ is the third album from married British folk/pop duo, Ferris & Sylvester. As the name suggests, the 11-track album is an exploration of finding joy and hope in the darkest of parts of life, inspired by the duo’s own experiences in music, marriage and parenthood. This project shows an evolution of the award-winning duo’s signature sound: vocal harmonies, hooky guitar riffs and their combining of sweet with grit. There is a distinct nod to 1970’s pop throughout the record too, with strings and backing vocals reminiscent of Bacharach and The Carpenters. Written and recorded in their studio and released through their label Archtop Records, this album is their strongest and most vulnerable, showcasing their ‘immaculate harmonies’ (Rolling Stone Magazine).
