1, 2, 3, 4, 500 Years - May 28th on @youvechangedrec // @TheGrizzlar

‘I Think, I Feel‘ by Innes Wilson Is a charming song that I think we all can appreciate. It’s a mid tempo bop with an upbeat feel. Wilson passionately sings every note so that the music transforms and transcends boundaries. ‘I Think, I Feel‘ is an earworm you’re going to enjoy!

Our #EarshotArtistOfTheWeek is the alt folk artist @theInnesWilson. The #Vancouver native's latest DIY album, 'Deference', continues to prove his strong & original writing skills. Available now on @outofsound Records. More: https://t.co/F8ACk91YtV #earshotdistro #musicdistro
