Once you get past their horribly uncool name, there’s not much to complain about on Meet You There. This English quintet has been playing and recording for nearly 30 years, and it shows on this collection of well-produced, Celtic-inspired folk-rock.
While the tongue-in-cheek Control should get a few chuckles, the band shows considerable acumen for dynamics. Gospel-inspired closer Dancing As Fast As I Can probably leaves a few alcoholic expats teary-eyed at each tour stop.
Oysterband hit Hugh’s Room Sunday (April 13).
