The Truth About Scotland Yard

Elia Einhorn got a lesson in music journalism with the release of his first album under the banner of the Scotland Yard Gospel Choir six years ago. The Welsh born/Chicago reared singer/songwriter found some interesting feedback in a local review. "One critic here in Chicago, who I had idolized and loved his column, hated it and the reasons he didn't like it was he thought we sounded too much like other groups — specifically Belle and Sebastian — and he said it was too British a record for a Chicago band," Einhorn says with a laugh.
