Guitarist/composer Cole Berliner's writing, arranging and playing highlights an album of rich-grained, acoustic, west coast parlor music and modern electro-acoustic instrumentals in the challenger tradition of Bert Jansch's Avocet, Marc Ribot's Saints and Jim O'Rourke's Bad Timing. Cole's ambient chamber folk gets into the spirit as it evolves, a growth continuing into speakers, ears and minds wherever it is played.
