Feel Safe

It doesn’t exactly thrill me to see that any band with the audacity to release a folk pop record these days instantly gets compared to the colossal Mumford & Sons, but on ‘Feel Safe’, Dubliners Junah, with their charging melodies and complex harmonies, bear an undeniable resemblance to the young Brits. Elsewhere on their debut EP On Waves, their cleverly-placed Irish accents save them from getting lumped in with the Billboard chart-toppers, but for these two-and-a-half minutes, it’s a very distracting comparison.
