All Alone In An Empty House

Lost In The Trees: All Alone In An Empty House (Anti)

Fairly mellow, indie folk; also 2 neo-classical numbers (03,10). Acoustic guitar; sad/soft male vocals (sometimes falsetto), lots of warm strings; sometimes percussion, horns and other instruments (theramin, bells, accordion). Ari Picker from Chapel Hill, NC is the mastermind behind it all.

Best tracks: 01, 04, 05,08
