Soulful, melodic singing backed by energetic strumming on acoustic guitar, ‘Relics’ may not sound like anything different from any other song out there, but it is. Maybe it’s the yearning in the vocals, or the fetching simplicity of the songs, but either way, duo Tom Blake and Dickon James Collinson, who together make up The Horse And His Boy have hit upon something special.
B side ‘Don’t Need Eyes’ is equally as beguiling and captivating, with strong piano chords and flowing guitars, perfectly offsetting the melancholy lyrics. Absolutely wonderful!
