THE WRAN – The Stone Man – LP – Black Vinyl [OCT 9]

LP – Standard Edition Black Vinyl housed in a Gatefold Sleeve. Pressed by Anthem Vinyl in Co. Kildare, Ireland.

The Stone Man is the anticipated debut album from Waterford four-piece The Wran. Made up of brothers Tommy, Danny, Sen and Stephen Dunford, the band have rapidly built a reputation for their immersive live performances and a sound that feels both rooted and otherworldly. The Stone Man infuses traditional Irish folk songs with punk and psychedelia, allowing the songs to grow and transform through atmosphere, rhythm, and weight. It is an album not only about preservation, but also expansion, pushing tradition into new territory. Woven throughout are the original compositions Dunfords March and Fear Dearg which sit naturally within that same world. This album is built from the songs we grew up with and found over time, say the band. Its deeply rooted in where were from, and it tells stories about people leaving home, the families they left behind, and the longing to return.
