Recent Additions : Sunflare by Alan Sparhawk with Trampled By Turtles

Sunflare with Trampled by Turtles has quickly become one of my favourite new releases of the year.   Sparhawk's 2024 release White Roses, My God had many fans scratching their heads with its mix of electronics and Chipmonks style vocals.  The match with modern bluesgrass/folk group for Sunfare seemed much more logical collaboration.  

My Spotify Release Radar playlist (which AI algorithms update each week based on my listening and favoured artists) highlghted a couple of songs (Stranger and Too High) in August and September which made me listen to the whole album.  

This album stands up well against anything that Sparhawk did with his wife with the much beloved  Low.  Low formed in 1993 and was a much loved band by critics and some super fans like Robert Plant (who seems to cover a Low song every one or two albums.  If you have not explored Low's catalogue I recommend you do - you are in for a treat.
