The Harbor Collective – “The Monday EP”
Relevance: 100.00% Posted on: 2009-05-05 11:09:59
One Monday evening, Brianna Lane and Cahalen David Morrison sat around repurposing pages from an old atlas into one-of-a-kind slip covers for their record, appropriately titled The Monday EP. Their sound is a sweet cookie sandwich made of two accomplished songwriters and a creamy filling of mandolins, banjos, guitar and other ...

Clarence Bucaro – “‘Til Spring”
Relevance: 60.79% Posted on: 2009-02-27 16:03:38

It’s not the sound of his voice but the tightly crafted lyrics and lilting melodies that are consistently present in the ten songs on Bucaro’s ‘Til Spring. Partially based on the John Fante novel, Wait Until Spring, Bandini, the ...

Still, she manages to make the eight songs work, tying ...
