Daniel Romano, Finally Free
If you’re looking for a soundtrack to an extra-dimensional voyage, check out Canadian mystic Daniel Romano‘s tenth album. Once a punk rocker, then a country singer, now an effusively philosophical singer/songwriter doing whatever he wants, Romano launches full bore here into psychedelic British folk rock and sounds like he’s been doing it for ages. The music is fluid and florid enough to carry lyrics “an inherent whisper frames the lineage of kindred speech” without sounding heady or unmusical. The artist layers harmony upon harmony, and plays a wide array of instruments, all of which you can imagine him playing somewhere on a mountaintop while in communion with a many-armed Himalayan God. Highlights: “All The Reaching Trims,” “Have You Arrival,” “Between The Blades of Grass”
