Ray Lamontagne - Within You
Man with big beard makes jaw droppingly beautiful tune. Man uses said hairy growth to partly hide from the world, rarely gives interviews, instead prefers to reveal what goes on inside through the shape of his musical compositions. These pieces appear within an acoustic framework but are characterised by the man's heartfelt voice. He used to work in a shoe factory but a 4am calling from St. Stills changed his outlook and eventually his income stream. Two long players promptly followed with this song appearing at the tail end of the newer one. Not quite an apparition but very nearly a religious experience it should have you weeping like a lakeside willow. KD
