With it’s plodding rhythm ‘Sun In The Winter’ by Trwbador rather stumbled into our consciousness. Once there it quietly set up camp before unleashing the full force of it’s charms, occupying our minds with it’s trance like climax.
It’s a charming, cute as you like folk, pop song that feels like it is been played backwards on a children’s scratchy record player. We love it’s innocence and deliberate vocal delivery.

As introductions go, this doesn’t get much better. First signs of love? (FSOL) – you betcha! While this feature typically focuses on debut singles, for once it’s immediately gratifying to know other material exists. There is no agonising wait to find out if the follow up material lives up to the excitement of this discovery.(It does by the way).
