NEW MUSIC: Wonders of the Yukon – Rachel (And All The Goofs And The Stars)

This is one of those great songs that rolls along effortlessly, blending country, folk and ragged college rock sounds. You can hear Wilco cosying up with Pavement and a cosmic Americana vibe as the perfectly jangly/dirty guitars swing and sway on a warm bed of distortion. There’s also a power pop element, particularly in the vocal melodies, that hints at some Big Star fandom.

Wonders of the Yukon are a duo that hail from Northern England. Andy Campbell and Dave Langdale write, play and record and mix everything on this track. They look to have released an EP and a handful of singles over the last few years.

As the pair say in their press… “Fear and loathing in West Yorkshire”.
