Our Take

MAWKIN's latest opus, "The Ties That Bind," is a delightful romp through the folk music landscape, blending traditional tunes with modern sensibilities. From the moment you hit play, you'll be transported to a world where fiddles and banjos reign supreme, with the occasional accordion thrown in for good measure.

The album kicks off with the foot-stomping "Rusty Miller," setting the tone for the rollicking journey ahead. Each track is packed with infectious energy and virtuosic musicianship, showcasing the band's undeniable talent and chemistry. It's impossible not to tap your feet along to the hypnotic rhythms and catchy melodies.

One standout track is "The Death of Nelson," a haunting ballad that showcases MAWKIN's prowess as storytellers. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a bygone era, while the instrumentation lends an air of melancholy that is both beautiful and haunting.

But don't be fooled - "The Ties That Bind" is not all somber ballads and introspective musings. Tracks like "The Rolling Sea" and "The Devil's Tune" inject a healthy dose of fun and whimsy into the mix, proving that MAWKIN knows how to keep things interesting.

Overall, "The Ties That Bind" is a masterclass in modern folk music, blending old and new in a way that feels fresh and exciting. Whether you're a die-hard folk fan or just looking for some toe-tapping tunes, this album is sure to please. So grab your pint, kick back, and let MAWKIN take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers!
