Our Take

Aengus Finnan's latest album, North Wind, is like a breath of fresh air on a rainy day in Manchester. With its whimsical melodies and poetic lyrics, this record transports listeners to a world where folk music reigns supreme and the North Wind blows strong.

From the hauntingly beautiful title track to the foot-stomping energy of "The Fox and the Hound," Finnan's storytelling prowess shines through in every song. His voice, reminiscent of a younger Nick Drake mixed with the charm of a pub bard, pulls you in and refuses to let go.

The arrangements on North Wind are lush and full of surprises, with layers of strings and woodwinds weaving in and out of each other like a Celtic knot. It's a sonic adventure that keeps you on your toes, never quite knowing where Finnan will take you next.

But for all its whimsy and charm, North Wind is not without its darker moments. Tracks like "The Wicked Sister" and "Black Waters" delve into themes of loss and longing, adding depth to an otherwise light and breezy album.

In the end, Aengus Finnan's North Wind is a captivating journey through the heart of folk music, led by a master storyteller with a twinkle in his eye. So grab your pint and your closest friends, and let the North Wind carry you away. Cheers to that, mate.
