The Horse’s Ha’s debut album, Of The Cathmawr Yards, blends Elkington and Bean’s voices and sensibilities together seamlessly on a set of songs that relies heavily on intricate acoustic guitar plucking, dreamy violin, and a gently melancholy air.
-
Of the Cathmawr Yards is a weird album, but sometimes weird is exactly right. That's the case here.
-
It’s a comfort record really, sincere in intention and almost flawless in execution.
-
Catamawr Yards, then, gets better as it gets more adventurous, and it gets more adventurous as it leans more on that backing band.
