North Carolina folky americanay duo Mandolin Orange, named after the respective instruments they both play, are the sort of band you could take home to meet your mum and have announced some UK dates for January (and one in February) including an appearance at Glasgow’s Celtic Connections festival which is the most fun you can have on Burns Night Eve without a haggis. The new album “Blindfaller” is indeed blinding and proves their adage that “a good song, and just one good take, will always shine through any studio sorcery.”
