How Deep Is Your Love? 3:24 Release Notes: Please Clap Your Hands, the five-song EP from The Bird and The Bee combines jazz and electro-pop to create a sound kind of like dance music that has been fed a few tranquilizers. The mod duo released this EP just nine months after their self-titled debut album. Multi-instrumentalist Greg Kurstin lays down a powerful array of instrumentals while vocalist Inara George seduces listeners with her innocent and melancholy voice. Think Brazilian Girls meets Remy Zero. “Polite Dance Song,” one of the grooviest songs on the EP, is a catchy dance tune that you can’t help but dig. Inara’s sweet voice belts out lyrics like, “I beg of you to get up and dance…It’s such a crazy kick-ass beat,” will for sure put a smile on your face. The track “Man” will get you dancing with Kurstin’s percussion flair and Inara’s jazzy vocals. You may be skeptical at first, but listen to the album a few times through and it will seriously grow on you. Throw it on at your next soiree and serve up some dirty martinis; it’s a sure-fire recipe for a good time.
