Fresh Kevin Morby Track

August 11, 2015 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Since going it on his own, Kevin Morby has been pretty busy (though I wish he’d make time for another Babies album). He is working on a new record for Dead Oceans in 2016, but the label has teased us with a bit of new music by way of this new single, slated for a 7″ in September (9/4). It’s interesting, as he sounds older and wiser here, both in the way his vocals sound on the recording, and the lyrical content. Honestly, I think you could see this coming from his earliest work with Woods, but I didn’t expect it to sound this polished this soon in his solo endeavors. Need a great classic rock by way of neo-folk jam? This is the one.

Kevin Morby Continues His Good Run

August 26, 2014 nathan.lankford

All I need to make the Kevin Morby triumvirate of greatness complete is a new Babies record. He’s already had a good year with a new 7″ this year and an album with his other act Woods; today he announced yet another album under his own name, featuring this great new track. It’s a relaxed tune filled with light touches of piano and horns, again illustrating his growth as an incredible writer. This new collection of songs is titled Still Life, as an homage to a art piece by Maynard Monrow; you can get the new record from Woodsist on October 14th.
