Great full-length debut (June 2011) from Monterey’s Gandzjuk (gand-zook). His vocal delivery is on the quieter side, quite effortless, and really catchy. The music is mostly easy-going and mellow, really beautiful. With guitar, bass, percussion, keys, mandolin, pedal steel, some horns, it’s really a mix of folk / country / Americana-type stuff. It’s ethereal, airy and in some places very upbeat. Solid stuff. RIYL: Neil Young, Greg Brown, Jakob Dylan, Jim White, Daniel Lanois. FCC #6 at end, after music.

*My Favorites*: 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11.

6. *(4:23) Mid. FCC at end after music. Upbeat w/ mandolin, driving, great performances by all.
7. *(2:32) Mid. Bass intro, really upbeat and propelling. Great stuff…
8. (3:55) Mid. Pedal, brushes, acoustic guitar. Mellow.
9. (2:52) Mid. Acoustic guitar w/ elec lead, sparse and sweet.
