Kyle Crane, touring drummer for Neko Case, M.Ward and Daniel Lanois has made a rather lovely record under the moniker Crane Like The Birds. It seems like a summer album, mercifully released in darkest January when people need it. It's full of gently strummed. optimistic sounding songs focused on rooting out all that feels the very best about the sensation of just being alive.
The album is full of collaborations, with James Mercer, Conor Oberst and M.Ward himself among several others. It's a rather lovely concoction that is reminiscent of a Summers day teenage excursion.A couple of songs don't work for me but much does.
