New Morning Howl

Bathed in the warm glow of the sun, Brent Windler’s debut solo record ‘New Morning Howl,’ summons the restrained beauty of his native Midwest. Windler’s pacific harmonies and intricate vocal and instrumental structures capture the polite malaise of Americana as it is lived everyday in mid-sized cities of the heartland. “Leaning out your window, yelling out I need to learn to let go,” Windler sings on the opening track "Around the Bend." It’s a sentiment that perfectly captures both the sticky sameness of a Midwestern evening and Windler’s own embrace of a sound that is uniquely his own.
