Listening to this again.  Wonderful song!

a very comfortable track as well as the vox

This is a great track (didn't realise you could throw a playlist into your spotlight, first time I've noticed this - so an extra thumbs up for helping me see that!)

Great to dive deeper into your very diverse music expertise, great songs. And this one is really brilliant!

dark folk / lo-fi / gauzy 
James Bracken cut his teeth as a sideman lending his soulful vibrato and rhythm playing to Ian Hilmer’s Stagefright, an alternative string band from southern MN. The band performed extensively regionally, steadily gaining grassroots momentum circulating live bootlegs but never releasing an album, which ultimately ended the band and each of the members went on to front their own project.  

Several hundred bar gigs later a fortuitous connection with Rochester producer Fires of Denmark led to a productive series of recording sessions documenting Bracken’s expansive catalog and tracking a brand new batch of songs set to be released as Echo Messenger.
