Besides finding creative ways to use Craigslist, Afie Jurvanen, a.k.a. Bahamas, has been busy writing new music. His new album is titled Bahamas Is Afie, and he's begun to perform it live, as evidenced by this Exclaim! TV session.
A week before his dually self-titled LP was set to drop, the folk artist stopped by the Exclaim! office to play new song "Stronger Than That" on our balcony. Free of the rhythm section and choral vocals that fill out the studio version, this stripped-down take still manages to accentuate the emotional vulnerability of the song.
Presumably, he won't be alone when Bahamas hit the road this fall to support the album. See the Canada-heavy list of dates here and watch the Exclaim! TV session below.
