Hangover Moon

Tony Clayton-Lea review,Irish Times 4 stars/5 "Kildare musician and songwriter Col Patterson previously spent time in the rock music trenches with The Vinylheads, a nifty enough band who released an album, Kicks, a few years ago but has since split up. Hangover Moon is Patterson in a solo capacity, and it’s a much more private experience, as the songs touch on acutely personal topics (including loss, injustice, love, mental health, family). The narrative load, however, is lessened somewhat by a collection of remarkably poised, crisp and light-fingered tunes that will have you whistling away without permission.
