Song(s) of the Day # 3,705 Winter McQuinn

                             

               

                                                       'A shady lane. Everybody wants one.'

Do you want a shady lane? Everybody wants one.The shadiest and most alluring lane I can direct you towards right now is Move To The Trees the latest album by Winter McQunn.  

Winter McQuinn ? No me neither. But it's just the kind of nom de guerre you want for a record like this. With a sleeve like the one it has. With an animated image of Mr McQuinn in an autumn sweater. Crouched  under a blanket. A cat on keyboards and a guitar with hands.

Just what the doctor ordered. Another stellar artist from Melbourne, Australia. Another wonderful album to soundtrack your Friday breakfast.

McQuinn has a track record. Formerly in Sunfruits and Jade Imagine. He keeps things simple. These are songs awash with birdsing and dappled  sunlight.

The record itself. Midway between a slightly happier Elliott and some early Seventies troubadour. Take your pick Move To The Trees sprouts peaches. A lovely record.
