MUSIKANTO | SKY OF DRESSESS
Chicago singer/songwriter Musikanto sets aside the twangy country found on his 2009 debut Ghost Pain for a folk-rock imbued sound on his eleven track release, Sky of Dresses. With gorgeously built layers of varied instrumentation, from horns to strings and accordion to harmonica, Musikanto spins earnest and easy-going tunes with wide appeal. Top tracks include opener “Blues for Momma”, “The Ballad of Two Vultures”, and “Awful Mind.” – Written by JFelton

MUSIKANTO | GHOST PAIN
SELF–RELEASED
Musikanto, the twangy Americana singer-songwriter, independently released his solo debut album Ghost Pain – an addictive, country-infused rock album in the same vein as The Old 97’s, Ryan Adams and Wilco. An accomplished songwriter, Musikanto cut–his–teeth in the Chicago band Sleeper Car for a number of years before parting ways and releasing “Ghost Pain.” He brings a musical maturity to the heartbreaking ballads, catchy melodies and jukebox alt-country on Ghost Pain.
