Hailing from Nowy Sącz in Poland is A Thousand Hills, and the latest offering titled “One In A Million” is a bright track that showcases the outfit’s tremendous talent. Lead singer James Macfarlane has an absolutely great sound to his vocal tones, with the mixture of guitar and percussion offering the listener an insight into the kind of music that James himself is influenced by.
…A Thousand Hills revive ’90s acoustic rock warmth with a modern indie edge on this timeless Polish gem.
It’s one of those acoustic rock anthems that bridges decades seamlessly, with some acoustic rock tones that can be placed in the 1990s, alongside more contemporary vocal structures that you hear in modern indie rock music, for example.
It’s so warm and upbeat. It’s incredibly addictive. This is one of the best acts to come out of Poland for a long time, if you ask me, and as someone who spends a lot of time in Poland, I can vouch for this: this is up there with the very best in the alt scene.
Perhaps a huge reason why this song is doing so well is that it was originally written in the 1990s and has recently been released with all of the aforementioned stylings added on top. If you’d like to have a throwback to an era that people are pining for, then be sure to listen to “One In A Million” by A Thousand Hills.
