Shipwreckers

Buoyed by a blast of fresh air, James Yorkston’s new single is a rousing track that evokes the alpine freshness of Nick Drake and his folky ilk. As with the album, Just Beyond The River, ‘Shipwreckers’ packs little sonic punch, yet its comforting, organic strains make for enchantingly emotional stuff. As far as soul-soothing sounds go, Yorkston is on to a true winner here.
