All the while Mclaughlin’s warm timbre blazes perpetually, unifying and comforting the lost souls that gather in its glow.  "gut-punching and raw indie-folk" NME "beautifully unique" Gold Flake Paint "What a voice" Zoe Ball, BBC Radio 2 “A beautiful and innovative ode to community and inclusivity” Tenement TV
