The Great American Canyon Band
Melodic and somewhat atmospheric folk-country. My Morning Jacket comes to mind, but The Great American Canyon Band offers a beauty both unique and addicting.
The Great American Canyon Band – Tumbleweed
The Great American Canyon Band – Young Lady
The Great American Canyon Band is a Baltimore indie-folk act featuring husband-and-wife duo Paul and Krystal Jean Masson. The pair’s first single, “Tumbleweed,” is a lovely, dreamy piece of countrified rock, destined for road trips. The rest of the self-titled EP came out in May, and an additional track, “Young Lady,” was released on Sept. 5; it’s available for download here.
The duo’s harmony-rich sound is alternately mellow, sad, wistful, romantic and sweeping. The Great American Canyon Band has been compared to The Duchess & The Duke and Lost in the Trees. WXPN‘s The Key describes the pair’s EP as “a gorgeous collection of hypnotic songs that draws on [a] heady mix of dream pop, acousticana and psychedelia.”
