Micah P Hinson - When We Embraced (Single)

5 out of 10

The first single from Texas singer-songwriter Micah P Hinson latest album, it is a strange yet compelling offering to the music scene. Once addicted to painkillers, serving a jail sentence and facing bankruptcy by the time he was 20 it sets the base for just how much of an achievement it actually is.

A calm and moving guitar accompaniment gives the vocals a strong backing setting the scene of how much input Micah P Hinson's life has had upon the production of this single and also his album. It is difficult not to compare him to the likes of Seasick Steve, it is nice to see new music that isn't just mainstream Indie breaking out onto the UK music map.
