Here We Go Magic - A Different Ship

Cantering sea shanties submerge beneath shimmering rhythms while soul-searching folk and dreamy cowboy doo-wop wash over oceanic mechanics fired in tireless dynamics; “Ship,” whips delicious conniptions into sizzling whimsy coating lonesome blizzards with snow-globe hopes. Spiraling vibes scatter fluid grooves through babbling labyrinths trapping locomotive emotions as Brooklyn-based escapists captivate and encapsulate, rallying rabid ballads dabbling in adventurous sentiment and scrambling past funky conundrums. A bubbling broth rocking runaway trains, swaying parades and gurgling circuses, the Nigel Goodrich-produced soup scoops unsettled regrets into scurrying diversions, persuasive labors flirting in uncertainty and tropical gossip raised from fretting lectures to tangy alt-rock meringues for lip-smacking tracks glistening in swirling whirlpool wisdom. A recently re-tooled HWGM visits Madison’s Overture Hall Sept 20th opening for masterful multi-instrumentalist Andrew Bird
