I picked up this CD at the Lovecraft Birthday Celebration in August where I saw Jeff Andrew perform. I tucked the CD in my bag and took it to work where it lingered on my desk until today.
I needed something to focus my brain while I worked. It was a chilly, grey morning and I couldn’t have picked a better disc to pop in the drive.
A little bit Tom Waits and a little Great Big Sea, with an edge. Officially, his music is described as “Hobo Folk Noir” which I think is perfectly accurate. Songs on the album range in tempo and timbre; I think my favourite is “Faerie Music.” Wanna hear for yourself? Check out:
