INDIE ROCKY, FOLKY, COUNTRY, LOCAL. A member of this resurrection of former Bay Area group Shimmer Kids Underpop Association hand-delivered this new release. Lead singer has an excellent indie/folk voice, there’s some killer songwriting, and there’s lots of instrumental talent with eclectic taste. RIYL Old 97’s, Cowboy Junkies. The whole record is very playable, but check the * count. No FCC’s heard. **** (4:44) Somber, slow, pretty **** (3:45) Slow ‘n steady rock pace.. Some killer guitar duo stuff. *** (4:42) More upbeat, little swing. Peppier. *** (3:31) Acoustic guitar, harmonica. Somber, slower, graceful. *** (2:29) Little honky-tonk fiddle, slide guitar. **** (3:35) Twinkly, beautiful, well-written ballad. ***** (4:26) Dynamic, medium pace waltz. “can’t help feeling like I’m just a fool”. Wait… transition to minor key with Spanish guitar? Awesome return and outro. Wow. **** (3:38) Laid back indie rock. **** (5:08) Harmonica, swinging rock. Lyrics are the highlight here. | ||
