More New Music from Wilderness of Manitoba

Surely I should be listening to happier music with this amazing Austin weather right? Well, I probably should, but this Wilderness in Manitoba record, along with a few other gems from the likes of Other Lives, has me in sort of this experimental sad-bastard mode. Who knows, maybe this is where I get my sunshine? Anyways, WoM will be releasing their album, When You Left the Fire, on May 10th via Tinyogre. This new track emphasizes the band’s ability to craft songs with more than just your average contemporary folk appeal, using a bit of a atmospheric wash to open it up. Hold on though, as majestic melodies wait for you. Having a great listening experience with this whole album today.

New Music from The Wilderness of Manitoba

February 11, 2011 nathan.lankford One comment

Admittedly, I’ve been posting lots of rock n’ roll, and things that aim to get your blood pumping. But, I still have an affinity for well-crafted folk-leaning pop music, and so I was grateful for the change of pace that swept into my email late this afternoon. The Wilderness of Manitoba definitely has a rootsy-feel to it, but their usage of lofty harmonies and all around craftsmanship have made them a joy to listen to this afternoon. If you’re enjoying what you hear, and I sincerely hope you do, the group will release their US debut on May 10th, titled When You Left the Fire. If it’s anything like this track below, it’s going to come in handy on those summer road trips and camping ventures with your friends.
