“Bobbing flowers and piqued beasts.”
Recorded in various living rooms in Oakland—with additional drums and backing vocals added at Santo Recording— “Lest You End As I” is the newest indie rocker by Owen Adair Kelley on Dandy Boy Records. Sometimes it’s easy and pleasing (as on “Maze”), other times it’s whimsical and dizzying (“Sleeping Bag”). Always daring and wonderful.
