I first encountered Vagabond in the middle of Thetford Forest last summer, when they supported James Morrison on his Forestry Commission Tour. I was totally captivated, which led me to see the band again – just two months later, this time headline, in the far more intimate confines of Norwich Arts Centre. Again, they were utterly astounding.
One of my favourite tracks, and indeed the title track of the promo CD that landed on my desk recently, was ‘Sweat (Until The Morning)’. It’s an excellent, energetic and naughty little pop song that serves as the perfect introduction to these talented gents. You can listen to an acoustic version of the song and see the guys performing below.
The Guardian has said that Vagabond “could be the world’s biggest new band”, and indeed the energy about these guys – both on stage and recorded – makes me inclined to agree in full.
You can buy their debut album ‘You Don’t Know The Half Of It’ from all good retailers, including Amazon.co.uk via this link.
