Old Ash

For those who adored 2010’s Perch Patchwork and equally, those who haven’t got a clue what I’m on about, Beware And Be Grateful, the guitar-loaded second album from Chicago’s Maths And Atlases, will be a revelation, a grown-up slab of earwormish, sugar-coated folk. ‘Old Ash’ too, is an unashamedly fun lead single; light on Dave Davison’s throaty, soulful vocals and heavy on tropical string work.
