Prog-Folk!
It isn’t a genre (nor should it necessarily become one) but, and we’re loathe to start this train of thought, how else should one describe the Al Stewart / XTC love-in that is Whelligan’s sound?
With songs spinning from one thing to another, this troubadour keeps you guessing with his peculiarly English vein of quirky, psychedelic guitar pop.
Magpie eyed vocals harmonise over warm and wiry guitars, while minor key strumbles morph into motorik rhythms and gorgeous melodies.
Skipping along with bar room pianos and cheeky enharmonic shifts, this is refreshingly perfect pop.
Prog-Pop perhaps?
