A PIANO IN EVERY HOME CD RELEASE + CHRIS KOZA
A PIANO IN EVERY HOME:
Its not so much a sound as it is an essence; there is no need to be able to distinguish it before you can trust it. A Piano in Every Homes second album North American Review is a collection that captures a poignant picture of the beauty and pain that comes with growing up. Written in the space and time reserved for examination, these eight tracks were coaxed from their bated origins with a delicate confidence and trial and error.
What started out as a duo of Travis Erickson, on guitar and vocals, and Jacob Pavek on piano, the two childhood friends incorporated the doctrine of their live show into North American Review, which includes Jake Wallenius on drums and Mark Newcome Kartarik on bass. The quartet transformed the wide-eyed tunes into a full-grown collation.
The lead track April, Kara Laudon [;John Mark Nelson, Kara Laudon]; accompanies on vocals and Leah Ottman [;LOTT, We Are the Willows]; contributes violin. April best represents the bands new direction, a solid and barefaced grasp of the connection in true personal relationships. Other tracks such as Anchorage and Seasick in Ohio show the maturation in Ericksons songwriting, allowing the music to live outside of the lyrics.
Within North American Review any of the songs could fall within the listeners favorite, depending on the moment and whether you are residing in your head or your heart. Throughout the album, the stories move between a sense of urgency and resolve, while seeking a tranquil balance. With music as their medium, A Piano In Every Home has woven their life experiences into the fabric of their work, something that was not as apparent five years ago. This is a group that is merely beginning to figure out that there are no boundaries in music and life.
