Skinny And Sam

New music alert. There are a couple of records released this week that have been getting heavy rotation on my metaphorical turntable since I was sent them by the nice folks in Promoland a few weeks back.

First up is "Easygoing", the new album by one Skinny Dyck (his real name is Ryan Dyck so I guess he selected the Skinny sobriquet to preempt the obvious jokes). Mr Dyck is a countryish singer from Alberta who makes a charming sound. The album comes out today. Start with "Can't Change The Colour Of Your Eyes" (see below) and work out from there.

The other is "Swimming", the lead single and title track of the upcoming album by Sam Moss. The album itself is not released until early next year but the single came out on Tuesday. In my humble opinion it does not fully prepare you for quite how good the album is. It is a magical thing. One for any fans of Bonny Light Horseman and early Hiss Golden Messenger.

To encourage you to investigate their respective back catalogues as well as the new records here is a track apiece from Skinny's "Palace Waiting" (2022) and Sam's "Neon" (2018).

"Jackson Hole" - Skinny Dyck
