Daniel Rossen – Silent Hour / Golden Mile

  • June 15, 2012

Brooklyn songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Daniel Rossen recently debuted his solo EP Silent Hour/Golden Mile. Best known for his role with the indie rock band Grizzly Bear (whose Veckatimest rated #1 on Record Dept’s Top 20 of 2009 list) and also identifiable as half of the experimental duo Department of Eagles, Rossen took some time to flesh out his own sound and instincts. The five tracks are all first takes recorded live in various locations across NYC, and were originally intended as demos for a new Grizzly Bear album. What resulted was a cohesive set of lushly layered songs that live and breathe in the moment. Silent Hour/Golden Mile is a must-have EP. – Written by JFelton
