Album Notes & Community Reviews

The veteran indie-pop sideman steps into the spotlight with an incredibly lush, intricately arranged suite of soft rock and sophisticated chamber pop. Boasting subtle, distinctly British neo-Canterbury influences, the highly melodic instrumentation remains remarkably soft, projecting an overwhelmingly peaceful and calm atmosphere. 'Paint a Room' is a beautifully mellow, spiritually resonant songwriting achievement.
