Shadows

2013 debut release from the eccentric So Cal Indie band. Imagine if David Lynch had set Twin Peaks in Malibu instead of the Northwest, and you'll start to peek inside the world of Maston. Brass, woodwinds, organs and piano mix with haunting melodies and eerie guitar lines that seem to spring forth from the very fingers of Alessandro Alessandroni himself. Maston plays all the instruments himself herein (save the harp, played by Ana Caravelle). This is a man who appreciates the historical musical tradition of the 1960s Los Angeles, and he succeeds without iron or pastiche.
