Second CD single pulled from their critically-acclaimed third album Wincing The Night Away, this spine tingling album stand-out tinged with Johnny Marr-style guitar breaks and mandolin twangs further crystallizes The Shins as masters of fractured melodies and heart-felt lyrics. Features four tracks: 'Australia', 'Sleeping Lessons' (The RAC Mix), 'Saint Simon' (Radio 2 Live Version) and 'Girl On A Wing' (KCRW Session). Warner.
