It’s a pleasure to listen to & it comes with a message of truth, that music is this universal tool for everyone to share & connect with others through.
Songwriter
Danny Baxley offers a fresh, creative take on music & artistic expression. To turn it up loud, enjoy & escape to; Ithaca has its own voice & energy.
The brightness & bounce of the music is clear from the offset. Jackson Howard’s voice is laid bare, so you get a genuine, honest feel from the whole thing.
The raw energy of punk rock with the easy going realness of acoustic folk. It’s an organic sound that generally comes across as part of a live show.
It’s really just a beautiful recording, a great song, hopefully one that has a positive influence on all who hear it. A pleasure to experience.
Deeply atmospheric & unique. You’re able to feel this connection with the performance as well as lose yourself in the overall sound of the music.
A true songwriter. The songs portray superb & often charming stories that need to be told, in whatever manner the artist & the mood deem worthy.
The artist’s unique perspective is well worth listening to, the added benefit of course is that the music surrounding this is ever creative & clever.
Not just an appealing, straight to the point album title, but the doorway to a vibrant & beautiful gathering of songs from a passionate songwriter.
A little bit of all that is beautiful, presented in an unpredictable way. A minimalist set of building blocks & a gorgeously peaceful few minutes of audio.
The delivery has a sort of spoken word style to it, a presentation of poetry, questioning lyrics, deep thought, consideration.
The art forms go together superbly; the video is a peaceful outpouring that feeds into the concept of this pocketful of something that can’t long be held.
