Our Take

NORFOLK & WESTERN's latest album, Winter Farewell, is a charming and bittersweet ode to the colder months. With their signature blend of indie folk and Americana, the band takes listeners on a journey through melancholic melodies and introspective lyrics.

From the opening track, "Snowfall In The City", to the hauntingly beautiful "Frostbitten Heart", NORFOLK & WESTERN weave a tapestry of winter imagery that is both atmospheric and evocative. The album is a fitting soundtrack for long nights spent by the fireplace, wrapped up in blankets and sipping hot cocoa.

Lead singer James McAlister's vocals are warm and inviting, drawing listeners in with their sense of intimacy and vulnerability. The band's instrumentation is equally impressive, with lush arrangements that create a sense of wistful nostalgia.

While Winter Farewell may not be groundbreaking in terms of musical innovation, it more than makes up for it with its undeniable charm and sincerity. In a world where everything seems to move at a breakneck pace, this album serves as a gentle reminder to slow down and appreciate the beauty of the season.

Overall, Winter Farewell is a lovely addition to NORFOLK & WESTERN's discography, showcasing their knack for crafting heartfelt and emotive music. So grab a blanket, pour yourself a cup of tea, and let yourself be swept away by the enchanting sounds of Winter Farewell.
