Damien Jurado's jangle-folk dreamscapes and love songs are perfect mix-tape fodder for any post-adolescent girl or guy. This timeless, folk-inspired, American pop is a breath of fresh air. In the same cerebrally harmonic stylings as the Byrds, or later descendants like Teenage Fanclub, Jurado effortlessly weaves textured vocal harmonies around clean lines of naturally catchy melodies. It sounds like Jurado is getting the sounds from his head and his heart on to tape.
