Ryan Vail – Shadows – Quiet Arch

Lights down low. It’s autumn and the radio is on. Sounds like the seventies but then Ryan Vail is introduced on Radio Ulster’s Across The Line and the moments slow to standstill. Moulding live electricity sometimes comes at a cost, though the transformation of analogue machines into dramatic emotion generated through the airwaves feels life-assuring in that blissful, melancholy way. Ryan’s voice smouldering, rippling with regret and possibility hangs on the keyboards in a uniquely distinctive way as this new single testifies. Watch, look and listen below and anticipate the next album full of this to come.

Release: September 29
