Michael O’Neill discovers a breezy and vivid slice of alt. country
A buoyant sea of thrashing acoustic guitar signals a breezy and vivid slice of alt. country wonder from Lost Lot, who consider the song “an ode to long distance friendships and the difficulty of saying goodbye every time you part ways, but a celebration of the fact that everything will still be okay in the end.”
The heart-on-sleeve lyricism and the broad, widescreen-ready instrumentation immediately recalls the splendour of Wilco and Jason Isbell, with Matt Dunbar’s powerful and evocative voice cutting perfectly through an immaculate mix which serves the optimistic and profoundly emotional undertone that is shot through the song. It makes for a gloriously moving experience, universal in its sentiment but full of character.
