Up until now the songs that I’d heard from James Vincent McMorrow‘s new album “Early In The Morning” had been nothing short of exemplary.
The album has been out elsewhere for nigh-on a year now but finally it’s getting a release stateside on January 25th. Just before Christmas I did an introduction piece about him and posted the beautiful and James-Blake-meets-Bon-Iver song “If I Had A Boat”, but now thanks to the dudes over at My Old Kentucky Blog you can hear a stream of the entire album before its release next week.
It’s a masterful piece of work, from the songcraft to the production to the tales told to his unwavering and heartfelt voice. Listen. Then buy it.
