2 very different recent releases by friends and acquaintances:
The Cobalt Season / In Search of a Unified Theory
A Kid Named Thompson / I Want to Wake Up
Ryan and Holly Sharp are The Cobalt Season. Beautiful simple prophetic music; never in a hurry. I hope to post a review of their new CD here shortly. Amy pointed out it's past one o'clock and i have to work in seven hours so the review will have to wait.
Jon and Josh Harter and Marc Molina are A Kid Named Thompson. I had the privilege of art directing a photo shoot of their band a while back. I didn't do much directing, really. But we had a fun day, and Kemp got some great shots. Youthful, melodic post-punk. Well-produced. But not over-produced.
hey, just checking in. we made a move to indiana...checked out the cobalt, and was really moved along by their music. movement, journeying, and that's how it has hit me these first few listens.
