Nowhere Flower - Heat Dome LP

Another week, another project that involves a member of The Spatulas (whose latest LP I’ve been meaning to get a hold of for months now… On the to-do list!), another node in a world that in the last 6 months alone has seem members feature on great albums from Mordecai to Lavender Flu to Lily Mullen.

Nowhere Flower is the solo project of Lia Jarzombek and her second release under the moniker. A record that largely lacks a rhythm section, these songs are made up of hazy layers of overdubbed guitar, flutes, violins, synths, a wonderfully wheezing harmonica, and half-spoken half-sung vocals that all teeter on rickety footings. A record full of foggy mystery that feels like it sits somewhere between Angie’s song based material (or even her Southern Comfort collab with Harriet Hudson), the latest Mordecai LP, and somehow the gentle lo-fi tilt of the first couple of Cindy records outta San Fran.
