Jad Fair and Samuel Locke Ward Announce Pure Candy

For all the trends and all the subreddits, it’s always gratifying to know that there are artists like Jad Fair and Samuel Locke Ward who seem to revel in the simplicity of the songwriting milieu. Today we come to you with news that the two will join forces for Pure Candy, their third collaborative LP. Our first sneak peek is a recipe of sorts; it’s a concoction for the perfect person, seemingly, all of it worked over sliding guitar licks and bubbling bass grooves. There’s this little tonal shift that occurs after each verse, hitting right after the words momentarily cease; it’s dug itself right into my ear canals and I’m hoping its made itself a home. Claus Frohlich created the video using some of Jad Fair’s drawings, continuing the uniqueness of the project. Pure Candy will be out on March 7th via Shrimper and Stationary Heart!
