Moon Bros – These stars (from the album These stars, Western Vinyl)

Sublime evocation of the wide open spaces of America courtesy of Matt Schneider of Chicago with some friends from that city’s notable musical underground... ...as distinct from Nashville which might seem at first listen like a better home musically. A quixotic rising voice singing to itself and keeping its own tune, a creaky chair, a simple strum, a shimmering steel guitar. It’s all very low maintenance but still demands your full attention. A rough diamond. Maybe not so Nashville after all. It is totally captivating. These Stars by Moon Bros.

The nasty groovy Kid Congo & The Pink Monkey Birds are in Ireland this week playing shows, inc Pine Lodge by the sea in Cork June 26. Morgan Delt is a new name on me but what a beautiful fuzzy psych pop noise he makes, from west coast US. And finally summer music (if we play enough of it summer might actually come), two songs written by Andy Partridge , for XTC & The Monkees . More on these pages.
