Jordie Lane & The Sleepers
Glassellland
Blood Thinner Records / MGM
Jordie Lane picks up where he left off with
first studio album in five years
It’s been a while between
drinks for Jordie Lane, but as his new studio effort attests, he’s not lost
anything in the interim. GLASSELLLAND
is Lane in vintage form, his strong and warm voice framing a set of songs
astounding in their intricate telling of everyday tales in such a way as to
make them relatable to most anyone.
Teaming up with now long-time
collaborator Clare Reynolds, the pair play all instruments on this one, Lane’s
trademark Americana/folk still very much the focus but now with a pop nous
(think Beatles, circa Rubber Soul)
that adds a new dimension to a sound already brimming with diversity and sonic
flavour. This album is strong and assured, yet another stellar release.
