David Thomas Broughton - Boating Disasters

Things have been sparse on FG as of late, I know. That isn't likely to change anytime soon. But I had to, however briefly, mention this delicate little EP from godly voiced UK avant-folk musician, David Thomas Broughton. You should know his name already, and if you don't, start backtracking. This four song gem is in advanced to a full length due out later this year and provides much more ear blessing goodness then should be possible in just over ten minutes. All stand outs, all representations of perfection...I'm so so excited. But seriously, before we lose track of it, Boating Disasters is wonder in and of itself. A rich slice of cake. I love this man.
