The guys from Onism E bring us a sound that’s totally distinct. A blend of roomy beats, ethereal atmospherics, and whimsical vocals that effortlessly stand out. On ‘Call You Home’, their latest single, the outfit embarks on a sweet melodic journey that drips with soul and character.
An American indie and americana three-piece outfit that’s based in Austin and San Antonio, Texas, Onism E are spearheaded by gifted singer, songwriter, and guitarist Eline Chavez, whose colorful delivery and distinctive nasal texture drive the music forward with astounding confidence. Chavez is accompanied by bassist Gabe Chavez and by drummer Andre Atalaya. The three members complement each other rather tastefully on ‘Call You Home’, a cut that’s both ethereal and warm.
The reverb-laden guitar parts deliver swathes of ambience on top of the solid waltz backbeat. The tight drum part, mixed dryly and in the forefront, is wrapped by a chic sheen of the groovy bassline, dynamic and juicy, with Eline’s outstanding vocals and swirling guitar arpeggios soar on top of the mix. A sweetly composed song, ‘Call You Home’ features easygoing chords and a melodic character that’s synonymous with americana.
‘Call You Home’ is very beautifully put together. A display of 3 capable players bringing a whole lot of passion to the table, Onism E are a balanced and talented outfit that is well worth keeping an eye on.
