Wasteland | CD

A clever, thoughtful, even nostalgic, but often with an underlying darkness to the lyrical content. Mixed and mastered for superior sonic clarity, the album is full of familiar musical references yet still modern, mysterious and creative. This duo has managed to blend the use of acoustic and electric guitars with a string section, brass instruments, Hammond organ and a grand piano into a sound landscape that bridges a gap between Baroque/classical music and indie rock.

Utah songwriters Preston and Gamero continue their ongoing musical partnership with a brand-new release in February 2024. “Wasteland” is a stellar collection of new material drawing on a wealth of musical inspirations, including Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Everything but the Girl, Love, The Doors, Joy Division, and The Smiths. This is guitar-driven, modern indie folk-rock with a symphonic twist. Chamber pop with an edge.
