Described by the band as having
Primal Scream and Rolling Stones vibes, Boy On The Train, the new single
from Morganway, does indeed have those influences – at first at least! Once the violin kicks in you know its
Morganway - but with a difference. It’s
Morganway because of the energy in every line, the difference is in the vocal
with Callum opening and SJ sharing the
lead this time.
It has always been hard to pin the
band down to any one genre – we coined the expression “Rowdy folk” for them previously
– but it is safe to say that by blending Country, Americana, Rock, and Folk
they have developed their own sound, best described as “Morganway”.
The song starts with guitar,
which is joined by violin, then drums – then just an explosion of energy as,
well, everything joins in!
The song originated from Callum
strumming a guitar at night on tour and developed into the finished article –
fittingly a story of family and the separation and connection caused by touring,
the inspiration being Callum’s family on their way to join the band on
tour. It’s a perfect time to release the
song too, as the band have just come off a tour with Belle and Sebastian and
will be playing across festivals this summer including the main stage at The
Long Road Festival in August.
Boy On The Train is destined to
be a crowd pleaser, and you can already hear the sing-along that will be happening
as the audience join in with the incredibly catchy chorus.
Get yourself ready for the Morganway
performances at this year’s festivals…
