3rd studio album from Portland-based string-backed folk songwriter. Whisper-voiced Justin Ringle leads this often-lush group. Instrumentation is usually guitar and strings, plus occasional banjo, piano, mandolin, musical saw and accordion. Really gorgeous stuff on here. Recommended. -Adrian FCC: none detected My picks: 4, 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9 1. Slow, pretty strings + piano piece. 2. med-slow. slowly developing song. 3. mid tempo. strummed guitar + banjo + string. nice tune. 4. med-slow. fantastic song with eerie musical saw, but the guitar work is really what makes it. 5. mid tempo. guitar+violin+banjo. lovely lilting quality to the song. 6. med-slow. slowly builds. nice mandolin work and, later in the song, string work 7. med-fast. bluesy, with plenty of tension that builds throughout. Another winner. 8. med-slow. Strong guitar lead with strings and piano later. 9. med-fast. nice melody line. 10. med-slow. quiet beginning, builds a little but stays pretty subdued. | ||
