From the deep, deep valley that lays between the worlds of indie, pop and folk, we return with our monthly offering of the unreleased, under-appreciated or straight-up awesome.
To mark the release of the latest 7-inch single by long time favourite Real Live Tigers, we invite you to sit with us for an hour whilst we revel in this intimate home-recorded session.
Hailing from Austin, Texas, Tony Presley has been performing his beautiful folk poetry under the moniker Real Live Tigers for the last decade. With his deep, rich timbre reminiscent of Bill Callahan or Viking Moses, Tony has a natural gift for story telling, somehow drawing us into his world in a way which can bleed into our own long after his last song has been sung.
