Listen: Message To Bears - 'Mountains'
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater October 21st, 2011

A couple of months ago we (I) went to see our favourite Icelandic composer-type guy Ólafur Arnalds at the Southbank Centre and it was magical. Also on the bill was Message To Bears who were equally magical. We've now got a track from the upcoming album for you to stream and it's downbeat, lowkey but subtle and warming at the same time. It's 'Mountains' and you can stream it below:

Message To Bears are/is currently in the process of funding the release of an EP and, equally importantly, a second full-length record. More details available here. So, if you like what you hear, then donate if you want to hear the album in full at some point in the near future.
