Interview with Obscure Sound →
The Wind’s excellent double-album, Harum-Scarum, is one of my favorite releases from the past year. You can check out the review here.
I spoke with the band’s singer Chad Marshman:
What’s the story behind the album’s name, Harum-Scarum?
Harum-Scarum means “in a reckless way or of a reckless nature”, and there was something about the word that sort of summed up the songwriting experience for us,...

'Monsters' featured on TheWoundedJukebox →
The four lads from California ambitiously known as The Wind finish out their 23 track double album debut with a song that successfully brings all my Beach Boy and Grizzly Bear synaptic connections into a neat bundle. “Monsters” is a beautiful and haunting ballad about the worst life has to offer, and just when it’s too late, you realize that boys of The Wind are monsters as well; albeit ...

This is the sort of album that launches...

The Wind →
tidalrave:
The Wind is an emerging DIY quartet from Long Beach, CA. The release of their first double-album, “Harum-Scarum”, has been well-received and acclaimed for its stellar quality of production. The album makes for some delightfully easy listening, yet the presence of evident complexity makes it appealing to even the most distinguished ears. Their 23 tracks have a nostalgic vibe, with...
