""Prosser is the new project of Eric Woodruff, formerly of Bellingham, WA space rock band Delay. His debut CD `Prosser' is a unique melding of indie rock and alt country, with hints of psychedelic and folk influence. Vocals, cello and a few keyboards are sprinkled on top layers and layers of the jangly guitars that form the basis of the sound. It is a modern take on a classic sound that many will fall in love with." - Official website
What we at Babble and Beat think:
We didn't want to fall in love - but we did. There's just something about Prosser's music that is completely irresistible. It's warm and dreamy, familiar and yet new... it's like sinking into your favorite chair at the end of a very long but perfect day. Every single song on this release was lovingly crafted & performed with a tremendous amount of heart, soul, and talent... and might as well come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
`A Worthy Seed' - A catchy tune with striking rustic melodies about a dream/need most of us carry.
`Summer Song 3' has a carefree and youthful feel to it. A bit of a Wilco mixed with Guster feel to it. Probably my favorite track on here (and that's not an easy decision to make!).
`I Met A Girl' put a smile on my face from the very beginning! Has a little of the sixties mixed into it. It's timelessly charming and sweet.
`The Time Has Come' starts out with a bit of a Crowded House sound to it. Another brilliant track!
`Today' almost made us cry - this song is so stunningly gorgeous! It has a magical spirit and is wholly moving. Perhaps this is my favorite instead.
Other highlights: `State I'm In', `Everything I Do', `Kind Words', `Dwell', and the lovely instrumentals: `The Path To A Field With A View Over The City' and `Summer Song 2'.
