Wild Nothing is the solo project of Virginia born Jack Tatum, who’s music is the product of an unhealthy obsession with nostalgia. Equal parts teenage wasteland and inexplicable regret, his songs are the kind that could only be made by the young at heart. Unlike the current herd of one-man bedroom bands, Tatum creates complex textural environments that aim for something higher. Melodies that yearn to stay with you. Warped interpretations of Johnny Marr’s guitar work and The Cure’s careful synth arrangements. Dreamy, catchy, and intriguing. Here’s to missing your youth.

In Tall Buildings is Erik Hall, a multi-instrumentalist who has played in several groups including His Name Is Alive and Saturday Looks Good To Me. But here we find him in his own element, layering track upon track of shining vocal harmonies, minimalist textures, crunchy finger-picked guitars..all from this veritable one-man band. A record that nods to Erik's heroes Neil Young, Gillian Welch and Radiohead.
