The world of cult Canadian songwriter Jon McKiel is one in which butterflies rise from the daisy beds while distant wreaths of smoke vandalize the horizon. His songs are born of the bruised marshlands of remote New Brunswick, from the craggy shores of the Atlantic coast; places where nature is a powerful wonder and the made-world is in slow decay. His latest Hex, is a great listen.

Chime School ARE the boys who run the Paisley Hotel, their gorgeous jangling ’60s influenced chiming guitars create perfect pop sounds, following the footsteps of like East Village, The Go-Betweens, and The Loft. This will be one of my favourite records come years end, with melodies that stick in your head. Highly Recommended.
