about

Seven Years Now is an ethereal mix of acoustic roots, ambient rock, and strange flights of sonic alchemy. It features a variety of different styles and eclectic instrumentation but is primarily rooted in a dark acoustic sound. Songs like “Full Speed Ahead” and “Walkin’ (to wake)” seem to recall echoes of Leonard Cohen while songs like “Diamond Highway” and “Every Stone” are folk-inspired tunes that romp and groove. The record was recorded, mixed, and mastered at Thomas Eaton Recording in Newburyport, Massachusetts. Overall, the sounds on the album draw heavily on the acoustic guitar, pump organ, and cello. With influences like Jeff Tweedy and Neil Young, Houlahan is combining traditional forms and simple melodies with evocative language and stark imagery.
