    Girlyman
    Everything's Easy
    Three-Part Harmony Folk-Pop
    Everything’s Easy, Girlyman’s fourth studio album, is the band’s most intimate and sophisticated effort. The cover, a playful paint-by-numbers scene, suggests a world where one creates reality with only a brushstroke. Yet much of Girlyman’s rare appeal is a willingness to see the shadow side of its own idealism. A placid suburban childhood unfolds amid the mounting pressure of the Watergate era in “Easy Bake Ovens,” while the “one hundred billion metric tons” of New York City rise beside the wide, unburdened river in “Hudson.” Some songs highlight Girlyman’s trademark playfulness, as in the Tin Pan Alley tribute “My Eyes Get Misty”, while the swirling counterpoint of “Wherever You Keep” strains musically and lyrically for the light. Self-produced and engineered, Everything’s Easy was recorded with a single, $10,000 microphone, fi nanced by fan donations. This microphone, along with the work of Grammy-winning mixer Ben Wisch, has created an immeasurably rich sound.
