Taking a hand-made approach to everything from his songwriting to the album’s artwork (which he drew himself), MacRae has crafted a record of folky, thoughtful, singer-songwriter fare in the vein of Bill Callahan. Building on his 2008 self-titled debut’s introspective musings and acoustic finger-picking, Dundrearies treads similar…

The journey from adolescence to adulthood can be a harrowing one. For composer and saxophonist Joshua Kwassman, that was true in a very literal sense, as a three-day bike trip, in August 2010, with an idolized childhood friend collapsed into chaos and shattered his youthful illusions. While that trek itself found Kwassman growing up in a hurry, his musical recounting of the experience marks the debut of a remarkably…
