Lille, “Robert Cohn” (2010)
find it on Tall Shoulders

“Robert Cohn” reminds me a bit of Nina Nastasia’s stark sound, but the brooding is less of the Tom Waits-style eccentricity found in Nastasia’s music and more of the temporary melancholy of The Decemberists’s quieter moments. It’s a lovely song that feels a little strange to be posting on such a beautiful summer day, but put it in your pocket for a day when the skies get grey, and you’ll have the perfect sound.
