Ex-Dear and the Headlights guitarist Joel Marquard and his new band release five soulful pop gems in their debut Self-Titled EP Gospel Claws.

Mixed by Bob Hoag at Flying Blanket Recording. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
