Ever since they formed in 2013, this Galwegian trio have forged a formidable reputation for crafting deceptively simple, deeply affecting Americana-tinged folk. Their third full-length album, From What We're Made doesn't stray from their admittedly successful formula too massively and the 12 track release is laden with absolutely stunning melodies and harmonies. Successfully capturing the intimacy and excitement of their live shows, fans of kindred spirits The Staves and First Aid Kit will enjoy what The Whileaways are cooking.

'Mother Says' kicks things off strongly, a flawless marriage of banjos and harmonies. From there on, the likes of the handclap-infused, skiffle-tinged 'Roll Down Your Window' and the super sweet 'Loneliest Girl' help make album number three their most impressive yet. It's the vocals that really make The Whileaways stand out from the crowd: Noelie McDonnell, Noriana Kennedy and Nicola Joyce stake their claim to being among the finest singers in the country on 'Julia' and 'Hardworking' in particular. Whatever they're made of, I want more.
