Tweet The Great Escape by Cold Mailman is a sweet and fragile popsong by a young unsigned artist from Norway. I could compare the song to some familiar music that we have presented here at Eardrums, but I’ll leave it to your own imagination Cold Mailman is Ivar Bowitz togheter with some friends and they start to record a album early next year.
