Alt-Folk From Astronauts
Astronauts is the project of London songwriter, Dan Carney, who has had quite the busy year. Earlier in 2014, he released not only an EP, but his first debut album, Hollow Ponds, under this name. Now, before the year is even out, he’s given us more to love with Four Songs EP. While this EP came out earlier this week here in the States, now is never a better time to discover this quiet style that features a culmination of soft folk elements and harsh electronic ones that will steal your heart with gentle melody. Listen to a track from the EP below, “Only Son.” It’s a great way to start off your Thursday. And when you’re done listening to that go check out their single “Skydive–” it’s also pretty special.
