Angus & Julia Stone are a folk and indie pop group, formed in 2006 by brother and sister Angus and Julia Stone from Australia.
Angus & Julia Stone broke big with their 2010 album, Down the Way. The siblings took some time off to pursue solo work. The album debuted at number one in Australia and took home five ARIA music awards. The duo returned to their ruminative, melodic, and often melancholy collaborations with 2014's Angus and Julia Stone. They display a knack for coming up with bittersweet, poetic juxtapositions, always hinting at deeper, more complex emotions, they say. It's that ennui, combined with the pair's heartbreaking sense of melody, makes this album a delightfully sad yet engaging listen.
