Description

Madisen Ward started out playing in coffeehouses with his Mother in Independence, Missouri. The two of them created a folk music duo, and were signed to a label in 2014. Madisen Ward is now performing as his first ever solo project, still crafting his own personal brand of Americana music. The same sound which launched the careers of the family folk-duo Madisen Ward and the Mama Bear. Bathed in the warm glow of the sun, Brent Windler’s debut solo record ‘New Morning Howl,’ summons the restrained beauty of his native Midwest. Windler’s pacific harmonies and intricate vocal and instrumental structures capture the polite malaise of Americana as it is lived everyday in mid-sized cities of the heartland. “Leaning out your window, yelling out I need to learn to let go,” Windler sings on the opening track "Around the Bend." It’s a sentiment that perfectly captures both the sticky sameness of a Midwestern evening and Windler’s own embrace of a sound that is uniquely his own.
