Think: boot gazing, rain-soaked American rock, moody roots pop, a fusion of drawling rural charm with dark and dreamy indie city skylines....
"Shades of Drive-by Truckers, the Jayhawks, and other notables from the crestfallen frontier can be found in this local quartet’s sorrowful harmonies and feisty tangle of guitars.... a spirited collection of wistful Americana"
John Chandler Portland Monthly Magazine
"The Man Who Owns The Sand is the third release of these local alt-country rockers, it's a tight, catchy record full of hooky, poppy tunes. Think Wilco or Ryan Adams while pulling out the Neil Young-like twangy, dirty guitars and vocal harmonies"
Matt Petrie Portland State Vangaurd
