It’s been a little over a week since my last swede-influenced-by Neil Young post. But with the impending release of Happiness by Markus Orn it’s time for another post about a Swedish singer-songwriter clearly in love with The Band, Neil Young, Magnolia Electric Company and even artists American(a) acts as obscure as J. Tilman and Damien Jurado.
“Sunday, 2 AM” was literally recorded this past Sunday (the 16th) and posted to the band’s MySpace page on the 18th. It’s rough with a bit of distortion peaking around the edges, but the vibe is supposed to be loose. The guitar solos ring true as do Markus’ upper register vocals.
