Another day, another dollar, another free download from the Lauren Laverne show. Today’s MPFree comes from Isle of Eigg no less and has been described as “Lo-Fi Schmaltz”.

TPT is Johnny Lynch from Isle Of Eigg, which is in the Scottish Inner Hebrides to all of you geography haters. He says: “I write, record and perform songs. Usually with an acoustic guitar, often with a beard, and ALWAYS with a cuppa tea…And custard creams.” He sounds like our kind of artist! Johnny is also 2/3rds of electro-pop duo Silver Columns and has also played guitar and sang in King Creosote’s band. This track is from an amalgam of his first two releases Secret Soundz Vol 1 & 2 - written with friend Sweet Baboo - out 9th June via the lovely Moshi Moshi Records.
And tune into the show tomorrow from 10 when we speak to Russell Crowe all about Noah!!! Epic doesn't even cover it.
