The fifth single coming out from Chippenham singer-songwriter M3g on Friday, Ashes of Memory, and if I’ve said in the past what separates Meg from the average singer-songwriter is her stark individuality, this one stands out as the perfect paragon….
There’s a choric aura in the undertones of this acoustic dream, evocatively expressed as ever, but perhaps more ambient and succinct than any of Meg’s previous winsome outpourings. It’s rich with poignant and lucid definition, hope in turning a metaphorical new page in her life, and the sorrowful trajectory which succeeds fades into tears, literally.
It’s one of those three-minute marvels that leaves you breathless and in a dilemma of quite what to do now it’s over. Meg played many local festivals, and has supported the likes of Gaz Brookfield and Amelia Coburn; any musician following her better pray she doesn’t finish on this one!
Find her Spotify page below, follow, or at least return here on Friday to hear it and judge for yourself, I think it’s a beauty!
