The Lower 48 – The End

‘The Lower 48 craft folk songs you could swear you have been humming for years’ is what it says on their webpage and as it happens that’s exactly what I thought when I heard ‘The End’. It annoyed me that I couldn’t remember who wrote the original but the truth was that it had popped from the grand imagination of a trio of teenagers from Minneapolis. So confident were they in their indie pop intellect that they crafted a full length called ‘Where All Maps End’ late last year. The result was a quiet surprise of a record, sparse except for the nifty acoustics and delicate interloping boy/girl singing. I’m sure we’ll be humming these songs for years to come. KD
