CD Details
Synopsis
Product Description
The August's debut, Thistle, Sparrow, and the Tall, Tall Grass, unwinds gracefully through an emotional, 12-song journey colored by bittersweet three-part harmonies and timeless songwriting resonating with heartache and desire.
The album opens with the wistful pedal steel melody of "Gatsby" and his "washed up dream for two," written when Krupka's longtime friend and bandmate abruptly left town. An early version of the song was featured on Aware Records' Aware 11 Compilation in 2005.
The rest of Thistle, Sparrow, and the Tall, Tall Grass covers the full spectrum of Americana, including a regret-filled waltz ("Mr. Right"); a jazzy torch song ("Call You Up"); a cathartic rave up ("Drunken Picture"); a mellow groove about a fresh start ("On Your Way to Gone"); and a tight South African-influenced rhythm ("Don't Worry.")
The emotional songs about life's twists and turns that populate Thistle, Sparrow, and the Tall, Tall Grass build to a poignant crescendo with the last track - "Single Room House." While Dustin's vulnerable voice laments a broken heart, her sadness is carried away by the transcendent swell of a gospel choir.
