Cannons and Clouds

Description

Cannons and Clouds

San Francisco's Cannons and Clouds assert smartly designed, melody-forward indie rock. Their sound, both wistful and dynamic is accentuated by slow-building acoustics, classical harp, and rich multi-part harmonies portraying unfeigned ballads and confession narratives. "There's a casual, understated elegance to the wistful folk rock sounds of local broken-hearts club Cannons and Clouds — it's there in the band's slow-building acoustic drama, in Zachary Blizzard's tender vocals, and in Steven Medd's expressive brushed-drum rhythms. The septet have a flair for orchestrating unhurried meditations on love and loss and touching reminiscences about dear friends in a vein much like that of Mark Kozelek (Red House Painters and Sun Kil Moon)." --Bay Guardian

Tartufi

“This is huge. Tartufi are just two but sound like twelve. Drummer Brian Gorman must have arms like continents, while the way Lynne Angel loops her vocals makes it seem like three personalities are battling it our for possession of her throat, Hold on to your brains.” –-NME

“A dizzying construct of lunatic prettiness that exists at some extra-dimensional intersection between noise, pop, folk, post-rock and who knows what else, ‘Nests of Waves and Wire’ is a mighty strange beast…it all flows together, like a fantastic alien river." –-Rock Sound (UK)
