Cold Country has
recently released an EP called Missing
the Muse. The band itself hails from Chicago and is fronted by Sean
McConnell. McConnell and company have actually released three albums all within
the last three months Libra (full
length), To Providence (full length)
and their most recent addition is the EP Missing
the Muse.
The amount of harmonica on this EP might bring on some
comparisons to Bob Dylan but that is
not really the case. If anything though, Cold
Country has more of a Neil Young
flavor with a bit of Neko Case
thrown in to smooth out the edges. One
of the best songs on this EP is Bird of
Paradise which opens up with a playful whistle and is filled with soft
harmonies that just bring out the underlining emotion that the song is trying
to convey.
A good EP should have a taste of everything good about the
band that made it and Cold Country
does just that with Missing the Muse.
