“Horizon” by Island – A Song Review

     How is this song not blowing up? “Horizon” is receiving some love in the blogosphere, but the track desires to be abuzz. It begins with guitar akin to “I’m On Fire” (Bruce Springsteen), but quickly departs and stakes out new ground.

     Island is a London-based band preparing for an extensive tour that includes U.S. stops. The tour schedule is at the bottom of this post. The schedule includes a San Francisco stop – Café du Nord on September 17. The tour will promote Island's debut album “Feels Like Air,” which was released via Frenchkiss Records. The album can be ordered using the Bandcamp site that is identified above the tour schedule.

     The members of Island are frontman Rollo Doherty, guitarist Jack Raeder, bassist James Wolfe and drummer Toby Richards.
