Villagers - Courage
Regular visitors to this site (and listeners to our radio show) will start to notice a pattern to our preferences of music genres. Whilst Stephen tend to mix it up a good bit, Neiler's love of folk greatly out-weighs mine. That said I do sometimes subscribe to the charity for neck-beards who can't afford proper drumsticks or any other instruments bar a guitar, and this is extended to my fellow-hood group The Villagers. This beautiful tune, Courage, from the Glenageary natives is taken from their new album, Darling Arithmetic, which is due out on April the 10th. For me, with it's stripped back vocal and subtle strings, it could easily be a b-side/extra track from the brilliant Lambchop is a Woman.
