Songs From The Secret Beach
by The Secret Beach
This record was recorded by my friend Micah under similar circumstances as Apple Core (and with similar equipment). Playing with Micah this year inspired me deeply and this record feels like home.

This record is Ryan coming into his own as a producer. It's at once nostalgic and novel. It's your new best friend who it feels like you've known forever.

Lou and I took frequent long walks together during the making of Apple Core and this record. It was one of the things that kept me sane during the pandemic. Lou is a gem and this record is primo.

Lost track of these guys for a couple years, then saw the Tiny Desk concert come up in my feed. I've had the album on loop on Spotify since Friday. This song in particular has been stuck in my head all afternoon.

Forever Only Idaho
by Harrison Lemke
Big, strummy songs that recall the heart-on-sleeve earnestness and lo-fi glory of early Mountain Goats.
