Turin Brakes: Blindsided Again (Antiquiet Sessions)

Turin Brakes is a band we first discovered back in 2003, well before Mumford's whole family started the trendwaves of acoustic guitar driven folk rock. In subtle, but important contrast to most of the cutesy singalongs that contribute to the latter's marketability, Turin Brakes' music has proven timeless, each album holding up far longer than the odd hot summer. We'd had an Antiquiet Session tentatively planned for a long time, patiently but excitedly waiting for the UK band to drift through Los Angeles. That finally happened this year in the course of their touring to support We Were Here, and their visit to our studio at Swing House in Hollywood was everything we'd hoped it would be. Here's Antiquiet Session #17.

Fucking three comments for one of the best live performances in recent years. Honored to have been a fan of Turin Brakes for 20 years now. Thanks for the music.

Wholeheartedly agree with you there!

Too right!! Managed to see them live in Oxford right before 1st Lockdown, front row. They had to cancel the rest of the tour. Been following them since the beginning. I have Olly's reel to reel from his solo 'If not now when' album. You can see it in the 'Philip Bloom' mini film of the album. Such a great band!

My second fave Turin Brakes song, just wish they'd do it live more often, the guitar solo at the end of the track is fantastic!
