The desire to explore other creative processes and solidification of his live band led this collection of songs to be recorded mostly live to tape through fully analog technology at Tiny Telephone in San Francisco. Blending thawed-out '70s tones with sentiments of soul and echoes of modern indie guitar rock, Ferraro's piano and Rhodes provide nearly as much a presence on each track as his own falsetto.
Astronauts, etc.'s debut album, 'Mind Out Wandering', will be released Sept. 18 on Hit City U.S.A.
