Artist:	OAKLEY HALL
Title:	Gypsum Strings
Label:	JAGJAGUWAR/BRAH RECORDS
Format:	LP
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	JAGBR 004LP

"Long regarded as one of the best live acts in New York, Oakley Hall has finally delivered on the promise of its collective talent and the energy of its live shows with the masterpiece Gypsum Strings, their second full-length release this year. Gypsum Strings busts out of Americana norms and re-imagines Laurel Canyon as made of steel and glass. The band's dynamic range and killer songwriting chops are in evidence as they careen from shredding urban rockers ('Confidence Man' and 'Lazy Susan') to spare and haunting balladry ('Living in Sin in the U.S.A.' and 'Nite Lights, Dark Days')."

Artist:	NURSE & SOLDIER
Title:	Marginalia
Label:	JAGJAGUWAR/BRAH RECORDS
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.00
Catalog #:	JAGBR 008CD

"Nurse & Soldier's Marginalia is gentle, bewildered psych-pop from the partnership of Robertson Thacher (aka Bobby Matador of Oneida) and longtime collaborator Erica Fletcher. The two have been making music together since their teenage years, a long history reflected in the intimate nature of the music. Far more vulnerable and raw than Oneida, Nurse & Soldier sing about longing, betrayal and reconciliation; the sound of Marginalia is a confused murmur, as opposed to Oneida's punishing roar."

Artist:	SINOIA CAVES
Title:	The Enchanter Persuaded
Label:	JAGJAGUWAR/BRAH RECORDS
Format:	CD
Price:	$13.50
Catalog #:	JAGBR 010CD

"Sinoia Caves is another name for the analog synth wizard Jeremy Schmidt, who is also a principal member of the critically-lauded, maximal-rock band called Black Mountain. The Enchanter Persuaded is his solo debut full-length. It is an ambient psych masterpiece, bringing to mind, as one writer puts it, 'the warmth and majestic epic swales' of Florian Fricke's Popul Vuh plus a 'little Rick Wakeman and Kraftwerk.' The Enchanter Persuaded was originally self-released in a very limited fashion, in 2002. This newest, more permanent edition comes with a slight remastering and vastly improved artwork."
