Awayland

Open All Close All

http://schema.org/description

  • "Awayland is the follow up to the Mercury-nominated and Ivor Novello Award winning debut, Becominga Jackal. Engineered, produced and mixed at Attica Audio in Donegal by Conor J. O'Brien and Villagers' guitarist Tommy McLaughlin. Awayland is as possessed with a playful joy as it is with devastation, with layers of surprising instrumentation that include more full-sounding string arrangements and dreamy, shapeshifting percussion; as well as a filtering of disparate influences - the quiet elegance of Nick Drake, and the sensuality of Curtis Mayfield. It is, as Kurt Vonnegut might have put it "intricate and voluptuous and enchanted andabsurd" (Slaughterhouse-Five, Chapter 6)- life, in other words."
