Album Notes

Sad Songs and Wildflowers is an accelerating combination of eclectic songs that evolved through collaborative creation between band members and the inner soul of lead singer and songwriter Desmond McCaffrey. Much of the inspiration for the music comes from inner tremors that trickle into the bands creative process; a process comfortable in uncertainty, not always knowing what comes next. From one song to the next, the album moves across different styles, but holds to a certain consistency that comes alive at the push of play. The songs were recorded live in a tranquil mountain setting, with overdubs from Colin McCaffrey, who also masterfully produced the album and allowed the band to capture the essence of feeling what it is like to know music for what it is truly supposed to do.

Amazing debut album!!!
author: Mark Aberdeen
                            
I found it impossible to fit Uncle Flatty's Sad Songs and Wildflowers into a category. Their sound is an ecclectic mix of genres that just seems to feel like home. The undeniable truth is that the music comes from skilled musicians that have found their stride and are going nowhere but up. I found myself completely swept away by Caroline and I couldn't help tap my toes to Whiskey Camel. The music is heartfelt and seems to capture the soul of New England, where the group calls home. If you're looking for an album that takes you places and knows how tug at your heart strings, while not forgetting to have fun, then this is the one to get. Cheers!!!
