Sean McMahon “You Will Know When You’re There” (Blind Date Records 2019)

March 29, 2019 Dave Clarke 0
Here is a record that provides a tantalising glimpse of Americana in Australia. McMahon, from Melbourne, has a distinctive voice that resonates here – wistful at times, but always a winning, must listen to, and thoughtful sound. […]
