Golden Bloom is primarily the work of multi-instrumentalist and frontman, Shawn Fogel, whose Wilco-esque aesthetic and bouncy, upbeat pop songs explore the differences between hope and fear in uncertain times. Fogel plays all the instruments on the record including piano, bass guitar and tenor sax as well as keyboard, harmonica, and drums. Fan the Flames was recorded with Ryan Ball at The Gearbox and produced by Peter Katis (The National, Interpol, Mates of State) with remixing by Roger Greenawalt (Ben Kweller) and Dylan Magierek (Mark Kozelek). Another great summertime release especially if you’re a fan of the early Wilco sound.
