Trails and Ways have emerged again with some stellar indie-pop in “Skeletons”, off their long awaited debut album, “Pathology” (Out June 2nd on Barsuk).

Calling In The Name Of Love

Pat Grossi aka (Active Child) has just released his “Rapor” EP (Oct 22) which you can stream through soundcloud and buy the album here! I want to shift focus onto the song ‘Calling In The Name Of Love’, as although this EP is somewhat different to his acclaimed 2011 album ‘You Are All I See’, he still shares the stylistic nuances of James Blake, Bon Iver and Jai Paul – which makes it rather difficult for him to really stand out, but better for him to fit in.

Either way, he’s very much ‘here’ offering up a music style that everyone is gobbling up right now. Stream the album and the track below…
