Cotton Jones, The Parson Red Heads, and Morning Teleportation at 7th Street Entry
With his old band, Page France, singer-songwriter Michael Nau captivated indie-rock fans with the charmingly low-key, wide-eyed folk-pop of 2005’s Hello, Dear Wind. Its better, more mature follow-up, …And The Family Telephone, found the Baltimore band balancing Nau’s maturing outlook with infectiously poppy music bubbling over with horns, bells, and giddy sing-alongs. His newer project, Cotton Jones—playing here behind a sophomore album, Tall Hours In The Glowstream, that's due in August—is even druggier and more psychedelic, with plenty of countrified harmonizing; it’s an evolution of his older sound, rather than a rejection of it.
