Happy Friday, everyone! What a long week. That flood at the beginning of the week really threw me for a loop and I’m looking forward to recovering this weekend. I have a few projects planned, including a little more pumpkin baking, and rustling up some costumes for a Halloween party.
What do you have planned? Anything exciting? Anything pumpkin-y?
Today, I want to share with you two talents I stumbled across yesterday. First is this really lovely video. It’s simple and gave me shivers.
And because it gave me shivers, I spent the next several hours listening to the artist whose music was used for the video, James Vincent McMorrow, while simultaneously kicking myself for not having found him before! He’s Irish, and his music is just so lovely that I can’t believe I haven’t heard of him earlier.
To write the album, he secluded himself in a beach house here in Ireland for five months. All his songs sound a little like a movie soundtrack. I sat, listening, daydreaming my life with a moody new soundtrack.
What about you, loves? Any good finds lately?
