Pictish Trail (Johnny Lynch) has shared ‘Slow Memories’ ahead of the release of fourth album ‘Thumb World’ on 21 February, 2020 (pre-order via Fire Records here).
The quirky piece of Mercury Rev-style indie pop is described in the PR as an ‘out-of-this-world ode to heavenly surrender’ and it finds Johnny in reflective mood: ‘In the end we never spoke of what went on that day. Still I believe that every thought was squashed between our brains’ memories’; ‘Was I awake or occupied? Lost inside a dream’. This dreamy tone continues as he pleased to be pulled up into the the light and beamed off the streets with tender vocal tones.
