Marc Carroll
Now Or Never

High Noon

WE SAY

Marc Carroll released his fourth album Dust Of Rumour during the summer to widespread positive reviews in the monthly music magazines and the wider daily press too. Judging by some of the quotes it's a low-key contender for many critics' end of year lists. "Marc Carroll is something special" (Mojo - 4*), "A gifted songwriter and a throwback to the golden age of West Coast rock" (Q Magazine). This is the next single from the album. With a mixture of edgy, if sunny, folk/punk rock’n’roll and ringing up The Byrds' jangly guitar sound, it's quality turns like this that have the critics excited. JF
