Alexi Murdoch: Some Day Soon (City Slang 14/03/2011)

Written by Dave

Foraging gospel indie-folk with a trickling acoustic lead is twisted into this stirring foray.  An “embrace the day” message is delivered in Murdoch’s laid-back, but earnest King Creosote banging into Nick Drake veined vocal manner.

Longing, yet uplifting is the overall impression given off and it adds contrast to this thoughtful first single to be extracted from the potentially hazy and meandering, ‘Towards The Sun’ full-length.
