Album Notes

hazy loper's second studio album 'high in the murk' features founder and instrument maker patrick kadyk on banjo and newcomer devon angus on guitar. both fellars share the singing and songwriting. the result is a dark, sad trail of lonely melodies that move in a stormy wind and linger like a whisper dangling in the turning leaves of a twisted tree.
"many of the ten originals on high in the murk have the feel of classics. there's just a consistent tone of impeccable musicianship, melancholy poetry and timelessness. it's a testament to the skill and soul of hazy loper that meditations on being literally and figuratively lost at sea can end up felling so solid and permanent." -sherry sly, for west coast performer 2005.
