A much needed breeze of ambient country wafting in off the air today as the debut from Seawind of Battery hits the speakers. The outfit, an alias of Mike Horn (Goldkey, Sunblinders),…
Lotta goodness happening in the instrumental sphere today and the news of a new Eli Winter album on the way only cements that fact. Winter’s last few records have been a lovely…
Got a second single coming in from the upcoming Rich Ruth album and it adds some further shading to the album’s glaze of spiritual jazz and kosmiche immersion. The central tenets of…
The catalog of Little Wings is rumpled and worn, full of favorites that are worth returning to again and again. Kyle Field’s songs are unvarnished, yet warm and dusted with a sense…
