Laura Doyle reviews the new release from the Heaton-based multi-instrumentalist
The Last Of The Fallen Angels is Heaton-based multi-instrumental artist Conrad McQueen’s ambitious project which brings together singers from all over to collaborate on his tracks. This global mindset makes for a diverse sound covering diverse experiences.
Ivory Tower takes on the establishment with a classic punk flare. Tara Tine’s Celtic twang shines bright in her frustration-filled vocals – a real middle finger to the received pronunciation crowd. If you have the opportunity to check out the video that goes with this release it’s well worth the effort. This is a project as passionate for its visuals as its sound, and serves as a celebration of the unity between artists that the digital age can bring about.
