Boho Dancer's debut album 'Gemini' is a recorded testament of three kindred spirits on a mission to touch others with their music. And that mission is certainly accomplished, as they have caught my heart and ears. These folk- pop guys are certainly spreading their name around, they are from Denmark and yet I am a reviewer from the North East of England and I have to say I have really enjoyed listening to their music. I find I lose myself in their music, like a Bohemian Child. Gemini's are known for their split personality I do get that from their album. Their tracks are quite the opposite all away through as it keeps you on your feet. The album starts slow then builds in tempo as it goes through. It isn't the same all the way though, but that does not put me off. In fact I like how the album draws me in with range music sounds; it is certainly a song for the summer.

The lyrics used in some of the songs, such as Like Rain are poetry in music "I would like to see you dancing, in the silver that you love". This song especially reminds me of Katie Melua, the music takes you on another level almost another world. Just forget about your cares and troubles in your life and relax. The music is enchanting, almost magical. Lead singer, Ida Wenoe has an angelic yet naive tone to her voice. I feel that the vocals are a little exposed in this album; they have left the instrumentation to one side.

I love Loving Creatures, the pictures and images that are run through my mind when I listen to this are simply serene. I love music that can tell a story and that of the song Gemini does, with this track listeners can relate and take it the messages emulated by Boho Dancer. Just the imagination that the band has, they simply ooze creativity. The album is haunting and emotional, you wouldn't believe that these three members of Boho Dancers have produced something as enchanting as this.
