Mundy - Strawberry Blood


(Morning Star, June 21, 2009)

Album review

"Big in his native Ireland" is not the most heartening way to describe an artist, but singer-songwriter Mundy seems to have made a splash in his home country and not so much as a ripple in Britain.
His fourth record Strawberry Blood follows up 2004 release Raining Down Arrows, a record which has proven platinum at home, so it's understandable that Strawberry Blood sees Mundy pursuing the same old line of gentle radio-friendly pop falling somewhere between The Thrills and Ronan Keating.
Nice if you like that sort of thing, which Britain apparently doesn't.
