Are you going to be on a long, lonely drive soon? Need to unplug from the world for a bit? Need to unwind? No worries, Holland Patent Public Library has you covered.
Available today on Dear Life Records, Songs To Fall Asleep At The Wheel To is a collection of contemplative instrumental tracks by Ryan Dann, as he was composing music for Adult Swim’s Joe Pera Talks With You. The pieces feature piano, soft synthesizer tones and other calming sounds, all blending together into a minimalist ambient soundscape.
Occasionally, a fuller band sound does emerge here and there, like on the slide guitar-infused “LaGuardia,” which bears a great similarity to artists from the recent ambient country wave, like North Americans or the Nashville Ambient Ensemble.
Chill, silky and deeply dreamlike, Songs To Fall Asleep At The Wheel To could easily make you…do exactly what the title says. Check it out here!
