Our Take

If you're looking for an album that will transport you back to the good old days of British folk, look no further than Jason McNiff's latest offering, "Rain Dries Your Eyes". This album is like a musical time machine, taking you on a journey through the rolling hills and misty moors of the UK countryside.

McNiff's rich, soulful vocals are reminiscent of a young Bob Dylan, with a hint of Nick Drake thrown in for good measure. The melodies are haunting and evocative, weaving a tapestry of sound that is both comforting and melancholic.

The album kicks off with the hauntingly beautiful title track, "Rain Dries Your Eyes", which sets the tone for the rest of the record. McNiff's lyrics are poetic and introspective, touching on themes of love, loss, and the passage of time.

Standout tracks include the brooding "Ghost of Yesterday" and the toe-tapping "Silver Moon", which showcases McNiff's impressive guitar skills. Each song on the album is a mini masterpiece, with lush instrumentation and heartfelt lyrics that will stick with you long after the music has stopped.

Overall, "Rain Dries Your Eyes" is a stunning achievement from one of Britain's most talented songwriters. McNiff's knack for storytelling and his unique blend of folk and blues make this album a must-listen for fans of real, authentic music. So grab a cup of tea, put on your headphones, and let Jason McNiff's music take you on a journey you won't soon forget. Cheers!
