Missing Link

artisntreal:

WYOMING is the most recent incarnation of artist and Los Angeles native, Jacob Bercovici. Wyoming’s music lies somewhere between the more mellow moments of The Shins and The Eels with some Leonard Cohen underneath; an acoustic and solo approach with a full sound. Well-crafted and catchy melodies are common in this introspective project and Bercovici’s warm and benevolent voice here is an ideal carrier.

From a blog post about him last October.

Wyoming has released a new EP, In The Wings. If you’re reading via dashboard, you won’t see the Soundcloud embed I’ve put below:

Easily the best music I’ve heard this year from ANYBODY. I avoided it for days because I thought, “it’s some kind of cliche for me to listen to a band named Wyoming when I’m currently stuck there…” but it’s an enjoyable listen. It feels like it was made at home, but it doesn’t feel like it’s lacking much.

Don’t take my word for it, listen to it and see for yourself. Or wait until all of your favorite indie blogs are writing about it and then go “oh, that’s what he was talking about.” Except, you won’t do that.

I meant to post this on my own blog. But oh well…
