Another Andy Ferro Tune

February 18, 2016 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Don’t think I’m just stuck over here listening to dream pop all day. There’s a special spot in my daily listening reserved for the like of Andy Ferro, offering a blend of folk and classic rock. Ferro’s definitely been on our radar lately, as he’s nearing the release of Muirhead (2.26). This tune’s right up my alley, bringing a bare-bones folk-inspired tune to my ears; I like the fact that it feels so stripped down, providing the intimacy one doesn’t always find in the modern musical landscape. Looking for something personal and quiet? This here is your tune!

Clever Folk Pop from Andy Ferro

February 5, 2016 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

This Andy Ferro track is really something, if little folk ditties are your thing. Andy Ferro has plied his trade as part of Nashville’s Ranch Ghost, but here we have him stepping out with little more than voice and guitar. The lyrics are great, taking on the mundane and spinning it into harmonic poetry. His strumming almost gives a swagger to the song, but it’s pulled back enough to feel more like a troubadour’s serenade. He’ll be releasing his solo effort, Muirhead, on Rough Beast Records on Ferbruary 26th.

Andy Ferro Strums Through Some Folk Pop

January 20, 2016 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Maybe it’s me, but this new Andy Ferro is something really special. It looks back on pop songwriting from the 60s, stripping away a lot of the modern accessories in favor of a voice and guitar. At times, the guitar gets just a hint of fuzz, but nothing to overstep it’s role as an assistant to Andy’s vocal performance. This is Ferro’s first major effort, and Muirhead will be released via Rough Beast Records on Februrary 26th. I’m keeping an eye on this one, as I don’t see too many contemporaries for the young songwriter.
