the only indie advent calendar worth opening - Day 3


Today's post celebrates the wonder of the classic album track. You know the one that will most likely never get radio airplay but when you hear it, it stops you in your tracks and makes you want to find a home for everyone to be able to hear it. Wolf Alice's Silk epitomises that track for me and I hope you feel a similar sense of excitement when you listen to it.

It's been quite a year for Wolf Alice, starting with recognition on the Sound of 2015 longlist and ending with a well-deserved nomination for the Mercury Music Prize. In between, they wowed new fans on stage at Glastonbury in preparation for their debut album release, My Love is Cool.

If you the time, I'd recommend you take time out to listen to the whole album. It has lots of familiar sounding influences and will undoubtedly find its way into your music collection.

If you don't have the time then all that's left to say is, in my third post in this advent of indie music, my gift to you all is Wolf Alice - Silk Happy listening!
