Back in late ‘05 or early ‘06, I highlighted an acquaintance’s music on this blog. Thanks to the great server crash of Dec 2006, I have no record of that post and it’s not on The Wayback Machine for me to snag and repost.
His name is Garett Gengler and he’s never really produced an album until now. Last month, he released a 17 song project under the name “Tomorrow is Already Here” called First Words. I’ve been listening to the songs and they are really nice. I’m especially partial to his vocals. They are engaging and something about his music makes me nostalgic. Not in a “This music sounds old” way, but just in a really nice, good story-telling sort of way.
A few of my favorites are “Back and Forth,” “Where it all Began,” and “White Bird.”
There are a couple places to buy the CD online. In fact, the download is still quite a steal at $2.22 over at Amie Street.
You can also listen to the full CD at Amiestreet.com, as well as on the sidebar at Garett’s Blog at worksongs.net.
