White Hidden Flower

by C.Way

supported by

Zach Kelly-Onett dark subject matter portrayed through hauntingly delicate songs. This record is super intimate and beautiful. Favorite track: Teeth.

lisaroseannebartholomew White Hidden Flower is a beautiful bloom and anything but hidden. It is evident that every note and lyric is heartfelt and thought out in this wonderful album which is full of sweet, sensitive melodies ripe with golden phrasing and intelligent and thoughtful lyrics. Several very strong instrumental pieces also grace this collection and Way’s adeptness and artistry on the classical guitar in his original instrumental pieces as well as ones that he has covered are impressive. Favorite track: Hyacinth Night.

about

These 17 songs, a mix of originals and covers, were recorded between 2006 and 2017. Some instrumentals, some classical songs, some folk songs. Some soft things, some tender things, some dark things, some intense things. A little lo-fi here and there too. Everything homecooked with love for thee.

I'm very happy to bring you this record!

call me island

Jess Hotchkiss' music is honest, pure, urgent. A tiny clearing outside of town, 3 AM, unidentifiable animals watching you from between trees. This LP to me summarizes her tremendous talent and power. C.Way
