About this product

Several things happened before a warm day when I met the four members of Frankie Cosmos in a Brooklyn studio to begin making their album. Greta Kline spent a few years living with her family and writing a mere 100 songs, turning her empathy anywhere from the navel to the moon, rendering it all warm, close and reflexively humorous. In music, everyone loves a teen sensation, but Kline has never been more fascinating than now, a decade into being one of the most prolific songwriters of her generation. She's lodged in my mind amongst authors, other observational alchemists like Rachel Cusk or Sheila Heti, but she's funnier, which is a charm endemic to musicians. Meanwhile Frankie Cosmos, a rare, dwindling democratic entity called a band, had been on pandemic hiatus with no idea if they'd continue. In the openness of that uncertainty they met up, planning to hang out and play music together for the first time in nearly 500 days. There, whittling down the multitude of music to work with, they created Inner World Peace, a collection of Greta's songs changed and sculpted by their time together. While Kline's musical taste at the time was leaning toward aughts indie rock she'd loved as a teenager, keyboardist Lauren Martin and drummer Luke Pyenson cite Inchdroning, meditation, repetition, clarity and intentionality,Inch as well as Inch'70s folk and popInch as a reference for how they approached their parts. Bassist/guitarist Alex Bailey says that at the time he referred to it as their InchambientInch or InchpsychInch album. Somewhere between those textural elements and Kline's penchant for concise pop, Inner World Peace finds it's balance. The first order of business upon setting up camp in Brooklyn's Figure 8 studios was to project giant colorful slides the band had made for each track. Co-producing with Nate Mendelsohn, my Shitty Hits Recording partner, we aimed for FC's aes

Close It Quietly is a continual reframing of the known. It's like giving yourself a haircut or rearranging your room. You know your hair. You know your room. Here's the same hair, the same room, seen again as something new. Close It Quietly takes the trademark Frankie Cosmos micro-universe and upends it, spilling outwards into a swirl of referentiality that's a marked departure from earlier releases, imagining and reimagining motifs and sounds throughout the album. The band's fourth studio is a manifestation of their collaborative spirit Greta Kline and longtime bandmates Lauren Martin (synth), Luke Pyenson (drums), and Alex Bailey (bass) luxuriated in studio time with Gabe Wax, who engineered and co-produced the record with the band. Recording close to home- at Brooklyn's Figure 8 Studios- grounded the band, and their process was enriched by working closely with Wax, whose intuition and attention to detail made the familiar unfamiliar and allowed the band to reshape their own contexts. Album Tracks 1. Moonsea 2. Cosmic Shop 3. 41st 4. So Blue 5. A Joke 6. Rings (On a Tree) 7. Actin' Weird 8. Windows 9. Never Would 10. Self-Destruct 11. Wannago 12. I'm It 13. Trunk of a Tree 14.

Jalyn Records is back! The Dayton, Ohio tag from the creative mind of bluegrass legend Jack Lynch originally ran from the early '60s through the late '70s. Working out of his apartment on Brown Street, Lynch turned out a steady run of hard-driving bluegrass, country, and gospel sides cut by local pickers and big names alike, including Ralph Stanley and Don Reno. Decades on, these records are now lovingly remastered for modern ears and available on CD for the first time. Here, The Gospel Meltones sing with bright harmony and joyful clarity, their voices flowing like a river toward the light. These songs rest easy on the sunny banks of faith, where devotion and melody walk hand in hand. Album Tracks 1. On the Sunny Banks 2. Rest at the End of the Road 3. I've Got My Things in Order 4. I'd Like to Talk It Over with Him 5. I'll Regret 6. Old Country Baptizing 7. It's Me Again Lord 8. You've Never Really Lived 9. Help Me Lord to Stand 10. I Was Dreaming of a Little Cabin 11. My Lord Is Such a Wonderful Friend 12. Steal Away and Pray
