Damon & Naomi, the long-running duo of former Galaxie 500 members Damon Krukowski and Naomi Yang, are back to make all your folk-pop dreams melt into the sunset. Listen to 'Sailing By' now.

They turn the idea of the Shipping Forecast into a typically lovely song, with Krukowski singing softly over Yang’s backing vocals and Kurihara’s liquid guitar lines: “From Viking to Tiree/At 0:00 GMT/All is calm as could be/For you and me…”

Damon & Naomi aren’t the first musicians to find inspiration in the Shipping Forecast’s litany of coastal U.K. place names. Blur famously referenced a few of its highlights on “This Is a Low,” the gently sighing ballad that closes their classic 1994 album, Radiohead slipped a snippet into “In Limbo.” Neither of those songs had the feeling of utter peace and contentment found in Damon & Naomi’s contribution to the canon, though.

Leave it to their pal Jarvis Cocker to explain the appeal of the Shipping Forecast: “For insomniacs, it’s a mantra that helps them finally drift off to sleep,” Cocker writes in a statement of his own to accompany “Sailing By.
