Sometimes a song comes out of nowhere and grabs your ear. That happened to me when Guy Garvey played this on the radio just before Christmas.

If you’ve ever loved Richard Hawley’s melancholy baritone matched to the twang of a guitar, then you’ll probably feel the same.

I don’t know who Jesse & Bill are, or where they come from, and I’m not sure they’ve even played a gig yet. But I’d love to know more – and hear more. In the meantime there’s this.

As a footnote about the reach and influence of BBC 6Music, it’s interesting that being championed by Guy Garvey has led to precisely 160 people going to YouTube to watch the video over the course of a month.

Still, at least two of them share my enthusiasm for this.
