Red River Dialect
Abundance Welcoming Ghosts
paradise of bachelors
tingly, pastoral positivity pervades throughout this hearty masterpiece of sublime folk-rock.
This record finds the band relaxing into a natural, playful confidence. Guest musicians Joan Shelley, who sings the hidden spaces on “Snowdon” and “Piano,” and Tara Jane O’Neil (Rodan, the Sonora Pine), who plays sweet, aching slide guitar on “My Friend,” complement the core sextet. Ed Sanders’ violin offers an invigorating breath of crisp highland breezes while Coral Kindred-Boothby’s bass swings the anchor in deep blue fathoms and sings heart-swelling, radiant harmonies on “My Friend.” “the most under rated folk rock band in Britain?” – mojo. “indebted to the beauty and textures of fairport convention, the record’s brilliance is most evident in its seamless shifts within the jam, as well as its general air of jubilance” – uncut.
