Field Medic - Fade Into The Dawn [Colored Vinyl] (Ylw) (Can) Vinyl Record

"Any song that's true is a good song in my mind," says Kevin Sullivan, the lo-fi bedroom folk artist better known as Field Medic. "That's why I never find it necessary to add too much stuff to my recordings. I'm just into songs themselves."That principle is the guiding light behind Field Medic's hypnotically beautiful and fearlessly honest new record, 'fade into the dawn.' Sullivan's first proper full-length release for Run For Cover and his first since making the leap to full-time musician, the collection features ten sparse, acoustic tracks that reckon with our perceptions of success and self as they face down the inevitable complications that arise from realizing any hard-won dream. Sullivan has always written candidly about doubt and darkness and anxiety, but he digs deeper than ever before here, blending black humor and bold introspection as he weighs fantasy against reality, grapples with his relationship with alcohol, and searches for meaning in the mundane. "I used to be a romantic / Now I'm a dude in a laminate," he sings of life on perpetual tour, encapsulating at once both the tantalizing allure and endless tedium of the road.
