The old devils are at it again.

William Elliott Whitmore. On Spotify, they describe his voice as a reincarnation of a gospel preacher from the 1920's and thats where my mind went too the first time I heard him. Love it.

I'm Kingfisher

I went to see Ed Harcourt yesterday at Debaser (Stockholm, Sweden). Along on the scandinavian tour Ed brought Thomas Denver Jonsson aka I'm Kingfisher. He did a great performance and you should definetly hear him out!

This year, Thomas released his 4th album Arctic, though it's his first album under the name I'm Kingfisher, is a conceptual album about polar exhibitions and arctic flora and fauna. It's a really beautiful story, and album, and Thomas voice can melt ice (hehe).

I was following the pack, all swallowed in their coats, with scarves of red tied 'round their throats to keep their little heads from fallin' in the snow

Iron & Wine and his charming personality

Sam Beam aka Iron & Wine will be playing in Stockholm in february next year, february will be a great month with both Iron & Wine and Band of Horses.
I am really looking forward to seeing and hopefully meeting Sam Beam, from what I've seen (on YouTube) and read he seems to be a really really charming, funny and loveable person.

Not the best recording I've seen, but it's a great song and I think it shows a bit of Sam Beams personality.





And here, a live version of one of the songs from Iron & Wines new album, being released in the beginning of next year if i remember it right. Sound so beautiful.
