Orange Animal is an American folk act unlike anything I’ve ever heard before – make sure you check them out here!

Hammer In My Hands is our first introduction to Orange Animal’s music, but I’m sure it won’t be our last! It’s a folk song with a traditional folk sound, with the main instrumentation consisting of some pretty fingerpicked acoustic guitar melodies, as well as a glorious violin section. The vocals are pretty low in terms of tone, but they actually work really well, creating something really stirring within the haunting lyrics. Hammer In My Hands is a must listen from me!
