Album Notes & Community Reviews

Stepping out from behind the drum kit of influential desert rock acts, the multi-instrumentalist crafted a remarkably mellow, sun-baked solo debut. The organic, laid-back grooves and warm acoustic textures heavily emphasize the relaxed, hypnotic side of California heavy psychedelia over aggressive volume.

Genres

Descriptors: desert, repetitive, fuzz, jam, sludge
