New Irish Music – The Sentimental Tourists – Living in Smoke Dreams
by Killian Laher
After the recent self-titled EP, it seems like Paul Page and Dave Long have got the bug and are following up with another impressive EP. This time out, we get three songs, which are full of Page’s excellent guitar work. You get plenty of this on Under The Waves, which has an insistent, memorable chorus. Page’s liquid guitar work is all over With The Radio On, combining with Long’s plaintive voice, the kind of voice we used to hear a lot of, but not so much anymore. There’s a change in pace for the becalmed, if a little sad, title track.
It’s out this Friday, and you can get it here: https://thesentimentaltourists.bandcamp.com/
