“In The Wooden Heart, Kramies’ voice and acoustic guitar work like punctuation to anchor drifting, dynamic instrumentals, produced with the help of Todd Tobias and Jason Lytle, of Grandaddy fame. In The Clocks Are All Broken (above), Kramies’ intermittent, multi-tracked vocal lines blend perfectly into the instrumental landscape, a symphony of analogue synthesizers, guitar feedback and chamber strings. In this way Kramies sings the story of a place where time stands still, while at the same time forming part of its scenery.”
