The Small Sounds: The Small Sounds
Digital Download:
The Small Sounds began in Houston, Texas as a collective of friends playing music reflecting folk, rock, alt-country, indie, and retro-pop styles. Their backgrounds vary -- Houston, Los Angeles, Denver, Austin, New Orleans, Memphis. The influences are diverse - Cash, Caribou, Calexico, Leon Russell, Leadbelly, Pinback, Great Lake Swimmers, and anything and everything in between. Meld it all together and out comes, strangely, a fair amount of Rhodes, pedal steel, and harmonies. The Small Sounds first full length album features the bands core members along with several special guests including Katie Stuckey, Mead Turner, Jeff Lerner, and Jason Healy.
The Small sounds are already hard at work on their second LP which is due out in early 2010
