Irish Times Awards Four Stars To James Yorkston and The Second Hand Orchestra

Irish Times writes that “James Yorkston’s 10th record for Domino Records reveals both a playful looseness and a radiant warmth. Recorded and mixed in three days, it is the culmination of a long friendship between Yorkston and Karl-Jonas Winqvist, the Swedish music producer, and leader and conductor of The Second Hand Orchestra. Taking in songs about past loves, present love, friends here and gone, ageing, and anxiety, the atmosphere is surprisingly hopeful, with the orchestra, featuring Peter Morén (Peter, Bjorn & John) and Cecilia Österholm, adding an improvisational flair that adds depth and richness to the eight compositions.”
