Sometimes, you can actually feel it.

Loosely based on the iconic peephole in Psycho, I Felt My Eye Expanding is a ghost story.  It works best with sound buckets strapped to your earballs as you walk and walk and walk.  Follow the through-line or just let it be a filter as you submerge yourself in the world around you.

Lord Huron – The Problem with your Daughter

[staring at the sun]

If you’ve ever taken a road trip, you’ll get this.

Lord Huron, shrouded in a lack of much information, is Ben Schneider – Currently living in Los Angeles but originally from…you guessed it, Michigan.

Think Panda Bear and Jim James from My Morning Jacket.

Into the Sun (single)

The Problem with your Daughter

This track comes off the band’s three song “Into the Sun” [single] release, and it’s worth noting that Lord Huron is a full band but this recording was done entirely by Ben alone.
