Thirty One

Impossibly depressing, ‘Thirty One’ is unlikely to get you out of bed in the morning. Yet there’s something inexplicably beautiful about the latest single lifted from Matt Lunson’s excellent Miss Vaughn LP. Lunson’s voice captures the inherent depression in growing older, compounded by drunken birthday celebrations. “I’m thirty-one years closer to dying,” he sings, “And I’m loaded again”. Enough said.
