Mike Browning - Never Too Late (Self Released) 2020 $8
"A dazzling debut, the disc demonstrates Mike’s gift for recreating heritage pop rock sounds while adding his own deft composition and construction skills to the show. There is no doubt the songs on this disc would have been huge hit singles had they existed when AM radio was where it was at. But good music is timeless, and these tunes indeed possess such a quality. Pure; playful and brimming with wide-eyed wonder, it’s the kind of record that makes you glad to be alive.” (Beverly Paterson)

The Mystery Lights - The Mystery Lights (Wick Records) 2016 $15
This self titled full-length debut album offers a splendid reaffirmation of the eternal verities of lo-fi psych-rock. The brittle garage-punk positively seethes with trebly guitars, reedy organs, waspish fuzzboxes and urgent drums.
