Scottish avant-folk band Trapped Mice kick off their new album Winter Sun with The Ending an instrumental featuring horses and sirens. It's a good way to introduce their blend of old school tunes with a touch of 21st Century tomfoolery. Singer Ian Tilling can holler and soothe, two moods that are mirrored by Lucie Miller's violin.
The Edinburgh quintet has found way to tough and fragile simultaneously. Tracks like Dance While Winter Cries and Mona Lisa ar goods songs to play when you are staring out of the window when the Fall rains are beating down on the roof. The Devil Wandered In and Hermit Point will please fans of The Smiths and Echo & the Bunnymen.
