Mellow Candle was an Irish progressive folk rock band formed around three young female singers who met at a Dublin convent school. They had two singles and one album, Swaddling Songs. They broke up, in debt, in 1973.

Swaddling Songs later became a cult LP and Stephen Malkmus covered The Poet and The Witch, which is my favourite from the album.

NEXT WEEK ON #ThePlaylist

I was reminded of a band that I used to love, who I assumed would go stratospheric, only for them to, well, not. So with that in mind, next week's theme is:

They coulda been a contender

Fling your also-rans at me. Your one-hit wonders who had whole albums worth of quality tunes, but who were cruelly ignored by the pop-picking-people. Use the tag #ThePlaylistSuggestion to ensure I can find it.
