Glasgow’s Three Blind Wolves hit our radar last year when they released their single “Parade” via Instinctive Racoon. It wasn’t long before word hit and national radio in the UK picked up these guys as the next ones to watch.
Their sound wavers between My Morning Jacket and Bright Eyes, but it’s the fact that they write such beautiful Americana-tinged tunes with a snarling, raw melancholy that make them truly special. They definitely don’t sound Scottish, but this is what may work in their favour as they steer away from singing in their accents to concentrate on decent, translatable songs.
Having just bagged the northern leg of the Frightened Rabbit tour in February, Three Blind Wolves are an absolute must on our 2013 ones to watch list—these guys have something special.
