Impressed is partnering with Burning Rope Records & Faction Records to bring you an exclusive Australian pressing of James Vincent McMorrow’s debut album – Early in the Morning, celebrating it’s 15th anniversary and his forthcoming tour.
Originally released in 2010, and recorded in isolation at a house on the Irish coast, James Vincent McMorrow produced every sound on the album himself, including piano, guitar, and drums – resulted in an album that captivated the world.
The album quickly garnered critical acclaim for its warmth and intimacy. Critics highlighted McMorrow’s soft falsetto and the Americana/Folk influences present in the tracks. The opening song, If I Had a Boat, begins with a cappella harmonies before developing into a reflective ballad, illustrating the album’s understated style.
