Oh shit it turns out everyone saying W. H. Lung might be onto something. If I’d heard this earlier in the year there’s a decent chance I’d’ve got fully obsessed with it and put it in my top 5. For some reason I’d assumed they were sad boy acoustic folk and completely ignored them. Mistakes were made.

Love it when this happens, brains can be so stupid sometimes. I’ve missed out on a good few bands and gigs because of it

I ignored Kelly Lee Owens for ages because I thought she was some kind of country music…
