The Independent Christmas Playlist: Courteous Thief – Mountains and Sea
The 4th song is by Courteous Thief, a talented artist from Conway, North Wales. I was put onto this chap in the middle of lockdown and he’s fast become one of my favourite artists.
Patrick Rowles – Creator of the Independent Christmas Playlist
If the importance of Christmas in 2020 could be distilled into just over 3 minutes, Mountains and Sea would be the perfect way to do it. This song is all about the power of love and togetherness in being able to stay strong and make it through the toughest of trials and tribulations.
Courteous Thief has created an incredibly beautifully produced track that manages to speak volumes about love without whilst foregoing the all too common cheesiness that’s synonymous with the season.
If you’re looking for a wonderfully thoughtful and evocative soundtrack to shed a few tears to on the emotional walk away from the family Zoom call this year, this would be a sterling choice as a touching and terrific reminder that, even if we can’t be near the ones we love, we’ll always hold them so dearly in our hearts.
You can listen to Mountains and Sea on the Independent Christmas Playlist, which has been lovingly compiled by Patrick Rowles. Read more about the Independent Christmas Playlist here!
