J. Eoin - Eve of Solution (Natural5Four)
From: The Guide (The Guardian)
Clearly steeped in Irish history and
mythology, J Eoin somehow conjures
otherworldly menace from weaving acoustic
guitars and double bass. Gratifyingly
sincere, as is the delicate and genuinely
romantic back-up track Call Me Down.
Sean One Shoe - The Story behind the Song
From: Wood Green Library
I remember it was the end of the Eighty’s
and the beginning of the Ninety’s. 29,000
building labourers went home that
Christmas on one-way tickets. Some said it
was closer to 35,000. I met a few of them in
the pubs around the Holloway Road when,
after a gig, I’d go in search of a late pint
and a bit of the craic. There was many an
interesting character in those places and
some great conversations about life and all
that goes with it. One night I overheard a
man say "it’s like waking up in the morning
with one shoe on and one shoe off and
wondering if you’re getting up or going to
bed!" I couldn’t have put it better myself.
