FAIR


For fans of Poor Old Lu, Aaron Sprinkle, The World Inside, Mae, Travis, Elliott Smith, All Things Bright & Beautiful this is going to be right up your alley.

Fans of Aaron Sprinkle take note. This album, the debut by Sprinkle's most recent moniker, Fair (a band made up of Sprinkle on vocals/guitars/keys/programming/percussion, old time friend and bandmate Nick Barber on bass/vocals, Eric Newbill on guitars/vocals/keys/programming, and Joey Sanchez on drums/vocals) is the best piece of music Sprinkle has done in his entire career say some critics.

The range of dynamics Fair accomplishes with subtle keyboard use and clever song structures and breakdowns are overwhelming. "Carelessness" is the album's first single. I like this song alot...and Songs like "Monday", "Bide My Time" the chilling and orchestral "Blurry Eyed", and the driving, melodic, "Unglued" soothes and comforts.You can listen to the their website fairforever.com or on my space.
