So, continuing my much delayed 2023 catch up, I checked out Portland Oregon instrumental band Grails album Anches En Maat. This is really good listen and much subtler/mellower than earlier stuff from them. Someone commented it was "Cinematic in a noirish sci-fi kind of way, slowly unfolding in a restless way, beautiful and mysterious".
It fits straight into my "Workday Certified" category and I've spun it a lot this past week.

Will Johnson released an interesting alt-country rockish album in 2023 called "No Ordinary Crown". Spinning it at work today and I enjoy the variety of styles he runs through. This one in particular caught my attention for its almost "Tool-esque" take on alt-country (don't yell at me - I am not at all Tool-knowledgable, that's just what came to mind when I listened).

^^ Almost forgot, Will Johnson also happens to sound very very much like Paul Dempsey from Something for Kate. And Paul Dempsey could sing the phonebook and keep me enthralled, so that's no small thing.

So Pale Blue Eyes are a "young electro-modernist guitar group" (so they tell me) out of Sheffield in the UK. They released a delightful poppy/shoe-gazey/dreamy album last year called "This House" and it is really something. I enjoy the upbeat moments throughout but my fave bits are the more shoe-gazey stuff.

Still stuck in 2023 for now...
Sun June hail from Austin Texas and released their 3rd album in 2023 Bad Dream Jaguar. Checking their wiki page it says the album was influenced by Feist and Frank Oceans, and that's about as good a description as I can give. Lot's of blissed out americana-ish stuff, it sat happily in the background of my workday today and I found myself at times unconsciously swaying along to the slow grooves.

Alta (Warped Kite)
Higgs, I have a lot of time for this guy. He makes terrific music.
If you haven't gone further than this record, try these three songs on for size:
Lenore's Lullaby Cornelius Heresy and Snakes
Lenore's Lullaby is an alltimer.
I need to find time to dig into his old band Centro-matic.
