Here Comes a City

VINYL FORMAT. Torquil Campbell and Chris Dumont have been making music together since the late 1990s, quite some time before the former achieved worldwide success as singer in Stars. They both used to live in NYC where the burgeoning fantasy of their own band provided a mental escape from their day-to-day existence in one of the planet's most unforgiving cities. The changes the two of them have experienced since have been channeled into an album that is a beautiful, bittersweet document of lives in flux. While melodic beautiy and unashamed lyrical romanticism remain the core components of Memphis' music, Here Comes a City is often darker and denser; troubled and distracted in places.
