SUMMARY:Roaming Spirits/Drew Pountney
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE A CHANGE OF LINE-UP. Michael has transport problems and cannot play this evening. \nInstead we have local duo Roaming Spirits\, fresh from performing at the Swarb Memorial event last weekend. \n \nMichael McGovern is a 25 year old singer / songwriter from Glasgow\, Scotland. From picking up the guitar as a child and writing songs from an early age\, Michael has defined his folk sound in the thriving music scene in his hometown. His debut album\, ‘Highfield Suite’\, is a summation of his work since he began writing songs as a teenager. The music mirrors this period of life\, focusing primarily on friendship\, love\, regret and reconciling with your mistakes. \nThe album prominently features a nylon string fingerpicking guitar\, and expansive vocal harmonies. Tipping its hat to some of Michaels great inspirations from Leonard Cohen\, to Bob Dylan\, Paul Simon\, Springsteen and Fleet Foxes. \nIn 2019 Michael released a live single “The Harbour”\, with his folk duo Between Brothers. He went on to play four sold out shows in Glasgow\, including at the prestigious Celtic Connections festival as a debutant\, as well as a Sofar Sounds performance. Michael then went on to perform at Maui Waui Festival in Suffolk\, and along with regular weekly performances is building up a loyal following. \nSince the pandemic brought an end to live performance\, Michael spent much of 2020 in isolation recording this album. The majority being recorded into a single microphone in a small wooden cabin in Ireland. \n“a noteworthy debut…the sonic and performance levels are impeccable…Highfield Suite warns of a real talent arriving among us.” – Jackie Hayden\, Hot Press Magazine \n \nAs part of a double header\, it’s great to have Drew Pountney back at the club\, sharing the evening with Michael.
