Caleb Nichols Shares Slate Age Video

Just a few months out from the release of the new Caleb Nichols record, and I feel like the single we’re offering you today might be the finest of the collection. There’s an understated jangle element to this jam, which certainly pulled on my ears, particularly when it mingled with the stomp of the drum to kick off a proper rhythm. Nichol’s, for his part, offers another charm, kind of like the missing link between Jason Quever of Papercuts and Elliott Smith; it’s a nice mixture of sounds that welcomes listeners with such ease that you’ll have an impossible time turning this one off. Stone Age is Back comes out on October 5th via Royal Oakie.

Caleb Nichols Releases Dark Age

I know that there are old music nerds throwing around names like Elliott Smith from time to time, and while I hate a good pigeonhole, I think that this new track from Caleb Nichols might just be too good not to make that comparison. At first, the recording brought me that early Smith intimacy; you can hear the fingers sliding across the strings, echoing as if you were sitting in a room with Nichols. Then, just absorb the dulcet vocal tones, but only for a moment, as he switches around the 44 second mark into a lighter whisper, almost straining to take us to more angelic territory…and all of that just before the 1 minute mark. His new LP, Stone Age is Back, will be out this October via Royal Oakie.
