Trailing the tears of love's labours lost comes calico. A work in progress, a collective. The ethos is recording music that is different, but not difficult. Beautiful, but not vain. Experimental, but not bratty. Formed in Salt Lake City in 2004 by Brady Gunnell and Lorealle Bishop, current members include Sean McCarthy, William Hesselbein, Tyler Ford, and Brady Gunnell. Though subtle influences from the nostalgic lyricism of Neil Young to the textural experimentation of John Cage can be found, calico strives to remain true to it's own language. Bittersweet and dreamy, theirs is a language that is at once honest and evasive.
