Raven Sings The Blues Presents Day 2:
Silver Synthetic is based in New Orleans, but the’ve always had the West Coast in their veins. The band backs down the choogle, looking to jazz and country as the crux of their inspiration for a second album, giving songs a suppleness that’s been shaved down in the past. The band’s sound curls under an evening glow of guitar dosing the listener with a refined ripple of twang.

Julie Beth Napolin (Citay, Meridians) weaves the kind of mercurial folk spell that leads to whispered-about reputations. It’s the kind of album that will enchant the initiated and elude those that missed it years down the road, tantalizing collectors of ‘70s folk arcana and aughts revivalists. Far from a showcase of solo strums and voice, the record dips its head deep into cosmic waters, layering diaphanous synths, flute, and cavernous guitars.
