Our Take

Valley Maker’s latest album, "When The Day Leaves," is like a breath of fresh air on a muggy summer's day. Combining elements of folk, indie, and Americana, this record is a delightful journey through the musings of frontman Austin Crane.

The album opens with the dreamy, introspective track "Branch I Bend," setting the tone for what's to come. Crane's soothing vocals and intricate guitar work are reminiscent of a young Bob Dylan, but with a modern twist.

Tracks like "No One is Missing" and "Mockingbird" showcase Valley Maker's ability to seamlessly blend heartfelt lyrics with infectious melodies. The band's sound is both nostalgic and innovative, striking a perfect balance between past and present.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Instrument," a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Crane's poetic lyricism and soul-stirring vocal delivery. The emotive piano and subtle percussion create a mesmerising atmosphere that is impossible to resist.

Overall, "When The Day Leaves" is a triumph for Valley Maker. With its captivating melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and flawless production, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression on listeners. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and let Valley Maker take you on a sonic journey you won't soon forget.
