The W Lovers “Jeanne’s Lilac” – breathing in the perfume

Why The W Lovers?” you may well be asking and to be truthful we do not have a definitive answer for you but it’s probably worth noting that this married duo consists of Fleur and Wesley Wood.  We can probably join the dots from there.

The delicate and evocative ‘Jeanne’s Lilac‘ is the latest single taken from The W Lovers’ third album ‘For a Day or a Lifetime,’ which will be out October 21st.  You’ll wonder at first, perhaps, why this didn’t get saved for the folk tracks roundup, and then all will become clear when the pedal steel kicks-in and we’re deep into a blend of folk and traditional country which we can only call Americana.  It’s a sound, The W Lovers say, that draws on their own extensive travels around the USA, absorbing different aspects of musical culture.

Sure, I could climb high in a tree, or go to Skye on my holiday. I could be happy. All I really want is the excitement of first hearing The Byrds, the amazement of decades of Dylan's music, or the thrill of seeing a band like The Long Ryders live. That's not much to ask, is it?
