All Those Ships - Perils

I must say, I have gained an appreciation for All Those Ships (a.k.a. Brandon MacNeil). The self-professed "alt-folk singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist," Brandon is a talented songwriter that boasts a very impressive knack for instrumentation. His latest album Perils has been in constant rotation for the last couple of days and it is very impressive. Moving from Irish jigs to sentimental love songs, the album covers a lot of ground and does it well.

As always with home recordings, there are some areas that could use a little production help but those are easily ignored by the quality of songwriting and the vast array of instruments Brandon chooses to include in his recordings. I have to highly recommend you check out the album Perils and you can do so here.
