TUESDAY BLUES

Do you like Singer/Songwriters, or do you have a unhealthy affection to the sadness, if so you may have a case of the Tuesday Blues!

Colin Macleod - California


We all have our Californian Dreams. I've always loved the idea of living the Surf lifestyle in Northern California, so it is nice to see that I have something in common with Colin Macleod.  Formally known as The Boy Who Trapped The Sun, he received some critical success in 2010 with the excellent Fireplace. (he even opened for Snow Patrol and the mighty boss!)  It's been a few years since I heard anything by Macleod (he's probably been on an endless summer-esq surf trip) So it was a pleasant surprise in hearing that he released The Anchor EP late last year, of which 'California' is the first track. Like many surfers, combining Folk guitar and wishful lyrics about the perfect wave is a common dream. Fortunately he has managed to do it. The lucky bugger is living the dream!
