Unfortunately, I found this whole evening a little bit middle aged and middle of the road. The Absentee EP Donkey Stock, first alerted me to Dan Michaelson, and because I love it so, it has coloured my view of everything that he does. Dan Michaelson and The Coastguards released an album called Saltwater in March 2009. It didn't blow me away, but is lovely in its own right. Well, in the end the highlight of my night out at The Albert was the cover of The Velvet Underground's Pale Blue Eyes. It shouldn't be that way. Dan Michaelson and The Coastguards can do better.
