Daniel Romano - Dandelion - VINYL LP

The Outfit career defining new album, Preservers of the Pearl, asserting themselves as messengers of the new wave of underground rock and roll, pushing the movement forward alongside fellow trailblazers Mystery Lights, Sheer Mag, Shadow Show, Uni Boys + more.Everything has been leading here. Daniel Romano shifts from his position as sole writer, opening the floor to Outfit stalwarts Ian Romano and Carson McHone, and welcoming into the fold longtime friend and legendary Canadian rock-n-roller, Tommy Major. The band is functioning as a true collective - multiple voices and perspectives - all serving one creative pulse. The result is both a new beginning and a homecoming, a complete and fearless statement.Tracked to tape at their own Camera Varda studio, the album captures the band live in the room - breathing, musing, and believing. It's the sound of human hands and hearts at work, in a shared moment of co-creation, preserved in real time in stunning hi-fi.Here is music as communion - rock n roll as experience. Preservers of the Pearl rejects the flattening forces in modern times - what the band calls Inchthe mono-agriculture of the mind.Inch In a Inchtarget cultureInch, condemned to homogeny and banality, The Outfit refuse Polish and uniformity, embracing imperfection as truth, and promoting curiosity through creativity. At the center of it all is a deep spiritual current - what The Outfit calls Rock & Roll Magick the belief that music is a sacred act, a force that can reconnect the individual to what is larger.The Outfit are making music that is purposeful and profoundly urgent. Preservers of the Pearl is an invocation - it's fearless in a time of great compromise, and resolute in an age of peripheral bullshit. Here is a band serving something greater than themselves.

Vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. Consisting of a single massive song in 12 individual parts, plus pulse quickening overture and truly grand finale, La Luna is an unprecedented artistic achievement by one of contemporary music's most ambitious and consistently surprising practitioners. Daniel Romano sets his visionary poetry to exuberant tune - It is epic, immaculately and extravagantly arranged, and truly cinematic. La Luna is a hymnal or scroll for modern seekers, brought to life by the impeccably skilled Outfit, with swagger and joy, including star turns on lead vocals by Julianna Riolino, and newest member Carson McHone (Merge Records) in addition to Daniel's own powerful vocals. Transcendently melodic, undeniably classic and shockingly contemporary, La Luna synthesizes teachings from the sacred texts of rock and roll and psychedelic-folk (Beatles, Fairport Convention, even the Stones, Queen...) into a new testament for a new time.
