Watch: Richard Buckner – Ed's Song (Best Fit Session)
Richard Buckner’s Our Blood was an under-the-radar highlight of last year – a record that achieves the rare feat of drawing in the listener further and further on every listen; as demanding as it is rewarding. Little wonder that Pitchfork ranked him among “the most intriguing songwriters” working right now. We caught up with him in a North London chapel late last year for this sublime rendition of ‘Ed’s Song’.
Buckner tours with Richmond Fontaine this May.
