“Singing saws, theremins, trombones, tamburas and a whole cornucopia of other unusual instruments sway and tangle around a multitude of ghostly samples here, creating one of the most unique blends of sounds and textures that you’re likely to find this year.”
– Keith Hadad (Record Crates United)
“It made me think of being high in a grandma’s living room, trying to hold it together but continually drifting into a distorted dream land. It drew me in, made me curious and in the moments when I felt comfortable I was soon pulled from that musty armchair into a mysterious desert.”
– Annie Elfing (Savage Henry Magazine)

“Drawn to the Investigation of Shadows” is an exploration of call and response, opposites and echoes.
