funny story i always thought @unbornwhiskey 's avatar was a silhouette of Freddy Krueger (lmao) only just today did I discover "Hats" and pretty instantly knew i had discovered a life long obsession incredible, incredible, incredible record
I have regressed into being a band t-shirt guy during fatherhood. Band-t and flannel for most casual events. Just the T during the summer with some short shorts
Same here (outside of the fatherhood lol), especially if it’s a comfortable and high quality (thicker) T. Patagonia baggies ftw
Paul Buchanan’s Glasgow: The places that made The Blue Nile’s Tinseltown Scottish Chamber Orchestra with Paul Buchanan, Aoife O'Donovan, Lau & Maeve Gilchrist
I have to revisit that one, feel like after years of loving Hats it didn’t hit quite like I was hoping. Definitely a different kind of sound. Spo have you listened to Mid Air?
I have, I like it but find a lot of it kinda floats by me. I have given it less attention than the Blue Nile releases, though
Hoping it brings new appreciation/listeners to this band instead of turning them into a Swiftie easter egg. I evangelize this band to everyone I can but my relationship with Hats and A Walk Across Rooftops is extremely personal.
The Blue Nile sell out of vinyl records after Taylor Swift name-drop Impressive. These guys are from my hometown so especially nice to see.
