What’s there not to adore in regards to Elizabeth Powell’s vocals? They’re strong, introspective and beautiful. So when La Blogotheque did one of their famous Take Away Shows featuring her band, Land of Talk, I was sure to make time and check it out. I’m glad I did because the band performs a new song by the name of “Quarry Hymns.” It’s no “It’s Okay” video but it’s a fun way to watch and hear new material.

The track is supposed to be off of their upcoming album, Cloak and Cipher, which is slated for release on August 24th via Saddle Creek Records. It should be a great listen considering the fact guest appearances include Patrick Watson, Stars, Arcade Fire, Besnard Lakes and more. They’ll be supporting the album on tour starting in September which is a good thing since Powell had to cancel a good portion of their 2009 tour dates because of a hemorrhage vocal polyp.

Check the video out below and grab their track “May You Never” off of their previous “Fun and Laughter” EP – a song that will continue to be one of my favorite Land of Talk songs until the end of time.
