All Winter We Have Waited
An English teacher and acoustic troubadour Chris Gavin writes songs that are full of slice-of-life vignettes and wryly observational lyrics. ‘School Trip’ describes a childhood jaunt; the title track celebrates the glories of swimming at the Forty Foot in Sandycove in Dublin. The record is exquisitely arranged with angelic backing vocals, strings and flutes.
