Title - 'All Things Go'
Artist - Mighty Oaks
For those not in the know, Mighty Oaks (and definitely not to be confused with the psychedelic rock group from Canada with the same name) are an indie/folk rock trio made up of Ian Hooper (US), Claudio Donzelli (Italy) and Craig Saunders (UK).
Based in Berlin, Germany, they formed in 2010 and in early 2014 they released their first LP, Howl, on Universal Records.
The album peaked at #10 on the Official German charts with several singles charting as well. They have since released a second LP, Dreamers (2017), and an EP, Storm (2017), and on February 7th, 2020 they released their third full-length album, All Things Go.

This quite brilliant new album begins by invoking lush, harmonious folk melodies on the title track, before bringing us the pull of past relationships within the pairing of 'I Need You Now' and the pleading of 'Tell Me What You're Thinking.'
The pop bounce of 'Forget Tomorrow' makes for a lovely windows down, summer drive and those tight, three-part harmonies and effusive, largely acoustic-driven folk anthems are back on both 'Lost Again' and 'Aileen.'
Their upbeat pop sense is shown perfectly again on the fervent 'What You Got' which is followed by the lighters up, stadium balladeering of 'Crazy.'
The beautiful 'Fly To You' is my own personal favorite here and then the album rounds out with the anthemic 'Light the World on Fire,' and comes to a close on their lyrically artistic viewpoint of our world today within 'Kids.'
