This gentle take on ‘Young Folks’ dispenses with the ubiquitous whistle and is much better for it, letting the lyrics some to the forefront. The track as a whole is charming, but the vocals are the real highlight. Dawn Landes, an astonishingly talented singer-songwriter, sounds like an American Laura Marling, her clear voice tinged with joy and sorrow. Whilst Landes isn’t a new talent, she is one who deserves far more acclaim than she receives.
