About Us
Songdog are a trio centred around Welsh songwriter Lyndon Morgans. He is joined by longstanding fellow Songdog regular Karl 'Pod' Woodward, who provides keyboard and the distinctive Mellotron sound that peppers the latest album, plus new violinist Bethan Frieze.
'Mirabilia Mundi' was released earlier this year on Junkyard Songs and is the latest album from Songdog. Over the course of the record's ten songs Lyndon continues his exploration of favourite themes: time passing and the struggle to make sense of a disappearing world; a foreboding of things ending and a looking back at long-lost glory days. There are also nods to the earliest Songdog albums woven throughout for those who know them and the set will include songs from Songdog's earlier releases too.
Previous albums received great reviews from the likes of Uncut, Mojo, The Mirror, Maverick, RnR and Americana UK amongst others. Lyndon's tracks have featured on BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6Music plus other regional and international shows. He recorded a session for Tom Robinson's show and his music has been praised by Bruce Springsteen and Robert Wyatt.
"Ten songs, ten peerless evocations of place, people and time passing, where every word is exactly right and every line conjures up an unforgettable image or memory.. This will be the album of the year." 5* RnR (Jeremy Searle)
"A gifted, fearless songwriter ...sculpting heart's-done-time melancholy, reverie, black comedy and poetry into extraordinary shapes." 4* Mojo (James McNair)
"These are elegies for art and bad behaviour that felt immortally good, an old idea of bohemia defiantly hanging on." 8/10 Uncut (Nick Hasted
"There lingers a feeling that Mr Morgans is a little bit star crossed. It is a wonderful world and Morgans has travelled through it possessing a big talent." Americana UK (Andy Davidson)
"Mortality, loss and failed dreams loom large, through Morgans's deeply poetic words and the simple but intoxicating melodies." Fatea (Mike Davies)
"Broken-hearted canvases filled with elusive, poetic narratives." Arts Desk (Thomas Green)
