Picnic : We've Only Just Begun

Picnic : We've Only Just BegunSince independence twenty years ago, Estonia has always tried to stand out from its peers, more Scandinavian than Eastern European, more Finno-Ugric than Slavic, an early adopter of the Euro (though that’s not such a positive these days…) but also instituted a flat tax – and is a pioneer in government-on-the-internet (so much so that its government websites were attacked by Russian hackers).

 

So it’s no wonder that they’d get in the indie game, ane one of their best is Picnic , who are putting out a limited edition seven-inch, "We’ve Only Just Begun", on local label Seksound as well as Shelflife in the U.S.A.

 

Picnic covers two sweet classics, "We’ve Only Just Begun" by Roger Nichols & Paul Willaims, and "Say a Little Prayer" by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, giving them the expansive, enchanting Baltic Sea spin the group did on their 2010 full-length, Winter Honey (QRO review).
