The Kindling:: “No Illusion”: A Brilliant Sway of Sound
The Kindling are a band that can disarm even the most anxious of listeners. With near brilliant sonic textures, the UK three-piece gently sway through genres seamlessly. With a light grounding in folk, the band crafts orchestral sounds and even hit on jazz …
A midweek (or is it!?) playlist
Human Barbie – “Don’t run away”-If you like creative singer songwriters, go ahead and drop that follow on Human Barbie. I’ve never heard anything like this. There are elements of theatricality along with “alt rock” flavors. It all mixes together for a truly …

You want to know what I’ve done with my quarantine (I mean, aside from the endless amount of tv and taking to eating hummus with a spoon)? Putting together a puzzle — and it’s a hard one! I get that this declaration does …
Brand new folk music to get us back to our roots
Freight Train Foxes – “Avalance”-This is a relaxed folk song about a disaster. It’s a nice little metaphor in the lyrics. I appreciate the way the lead vocal nestles right into the middle of the mix, allowing the strings to fill out the …
