Wyndham To Release A FISTFUL OF STARS On 4/12, Stream SPARK featuring Lola Kirke at Under The Radar  Image

On April 12 Los Angeles-based musican Wyndham will release his second full-length solo album A Fistful Of Stars. The album is available to pre-order now at Bandcamp. Today Wyndham shared the first single "Spark" which features Lola Kirke with Under The Radar and the song will be available on all streaming services this Friday. About the song Under The Radar says, "Wyndham croons over a breezy backdrop of slide guitars and plangent horns. The song is a mantra to self that serves as a reminder of inner strength and takes its sonic cues from the soft palate of 1970s folk rock."

On "Spark" Wyndham adds:

I grew up in New York City and while there's so much about that town I love, something about its general nature or maybe just my personal demons there, often leave me feeling like I want to run as far away as possible. "Spark" was written upon my return home after a series of travels. I was scared of losing the joy and freedom I had discovered while away, imagining somehow that it didn't belong to me, but to the places I had seen. I have always found affirmation in the music I love and as a songwriter, I often seek to enliven the sentiments I need to hear. This song became that for me: a reminder that I already have everything I need and that the beauty I see in other things can just be a mirror of that, instead of a totem to what I feel I lack.

Wyndham Garnett is a multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, and producer based in Los Angeles. He is an original member of Elvis Perkins in Dearland and Diamond Doves and a former touring member of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. He has shared the stage with the likes of My Morning Jacket, Levon Helm, Dr. Dog, The Felice Brothers, Marco Benevento, and many others.

His second full-length solo record, A Fistful of Stars, sees Wyndham collaborating with celebrated producer/engineer Sean O'Brien. An avid enthusiast of 1970's rock, it draws from influences like Kevin Ayers and J. J. Cale, and features performances by Omar Velasco (Jonathan Wilson, Amo Amo), Shane Mckillop (Gardens and Villa, Amo Amo), Nate Walcott (Bright Eyes), Matt Aveiro (Cold War Kids), Sean Walker (Delta Spirit), Zack Tenorio (Arc Iris). It will be available in April 2019.

Garnett has collaborated closely with musician and actress Lola Kirke, producing her self-titled EP, along with her debut LP, Heart Head West, which was released on Downtown Records in August 2018 and followed by a pair of Christmas songs released last November. The duo will released another pair of songs earlier this month.
