The Wilderness of Manitoba – Hymns of Love and Spirits

  • December 7, 2009

Toronto five-piece The Wilderness of Manitoba’s debut EP Hymns of Love and Spirits is a lo-fi indie folk album that features gorgeous four piece harmonies and gently plucked banjo. Standout tracks include “Crow’s Feet,” a song about growing old and reflecting upon love, and “Evening,” a song written in the ‘60s by Wendy Blackburn, the mother of lead singer of Will Whitwham. Hymns of Love and Spirits is a stunning lo-fi gem that is a thoughtful, heart heavy and superb starting point for a group of talented young musicians. – Written by JFelton
