On a semi-regular basis, a post is dedicated to the Indie Folk genre. It’s been more than two months since the last Folk post, so this one is overdue. Welcome to the August installment of the series.
We hoped to find “When Morning Came” on Soundcloud or Bandcamp, because that would maximize the likelihood that the song would reach Hype Machine. The song deserves the exposure. The song is our favorite from the album “First Sign of Morning” by The Young Folks. This is an Irish band comprising Anthony Furey, Paul Butler, Tony McLoughlin, Alex Borwick, and Patrick Hopkins.
