Single from the Last of the Full-Grown Men.

Single mix of a track from It's All There But You're Dreaming by the fast-rising UK band we first featured several years back.
16. "Diamonds" by The Burnt Pines (from The Burnt Pines - 2021)
Located in Boston, Massachusetts and Lisbon, Portugal - this Trans-Atlantic folk-pop band recently released the self-titled debut, and this is the lead track.

Featured Friday Playlist
"What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?" by Aqua Velvet (from Home for the Holidays - 2020)
Question: Is February 8 too late (or two early) for a New Year's song? Answer: When said song is by the incredible Aqua Velvet - masterminded by the multi-talented Jim Hoke - the answer is an unequivocal "No!"
"I Want You" by The Minks (from Light & Sweet - 2019)
From their full-length debut album on Cafe Rooster Records - Nikki Barber and company - tear it up (see the live video in the playlist below as evidence).
"Oceans Are Rising" by The Smoking Flowers (from Patriocrisy - 2021)
We just featured The Smoking Flowers new album on Friday via a different song in this week's Featured Friday Playlist. Kim and Scott Collins have a topical and musically masterful record.
"Uncanny Moon" by Anne McCue (from Blue Sky Thinkin' - 2015)
Anne McCue is a singer-songwriter and DJ. She is a native of Australia, but she has been a fixture in the East Nashville music community for years. Blue Sky Thinkin' is a great album, and I always love with tracks from it show up in the shuffle
"The Ghost" by Ghost Town Remedy (from Dry Spell - 2020)
Ghost Town Remedy absolutely killed in 2020 - with the release of their full-length debut and the preceding singles - plus imaginative videos and fun live streams. I hope everyone will stay safe and do the right thing so that I can see the band live again as soon as possible.
