I've been giving Passenger's Flight of the Crow album some massive time on my exciting road trips to and from work. It's really effortless to listen to and features some excellent Australian collaborators. It has even cynics like myself enjoying a song featuring Josh Pyke even when I thought that Middle of the Hill had sent me to putting the middle of sledgehammer into my own skull.
Chris reckons he sounds a bit James Blunt, but I urge anyone thinking this to rethink the Bob Dylan comparisons of Tallest Man On Earth.
Golden Thread features the ghostly Matty Corby who is ever increasingly being mentioned in the same breath as brilliance. This new clip is yet another fine collaboration but this time between artist and animator namely Mike Charlton.
Don't be fooled, this isn't a target advertisement but it is quite hypnotic.
Passenger is touring Australia with Boy and Bear through September & October.
