The inventive and enigmatic sounds of Colorado-based singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Kwolek have seriously caught our attention this year. ‘Cemetery Days’ began our love affair, ‘Ronnie Stole This Riff + Kim Is Desperate’ deepened our fascination, and now ‘Some Evenings’ has fully cemented our admiration for the artist.
Described by the musician as a “sexually-charged blast of grungy get-up that we all need right now,” ‘Some Evenings’ is a raw and gritty yet utterly infectious offering about a person bored with their job. Seeking entertainment and something different in the evenings, the story-driven tune is a smorgasbord of sounds and styles unlike any I’ve heard in some time.
Admittedly inspired at the time of creation by English progressive folk singer/songwriter Richard Dawson, Kwolek infuses ‘Some Evenings’ with a captivating mix of eclectic influences and bold sonic experimentation. It’s in-your-face and unrelenting – just how we like it around these parts!
As Kwolek continues to amaze and surprise us with each new release, we can’t help but look forward to hearing what this boundary-pushing artist will unveil next. His ever-evolving sound speaks to a musician who plays by their own rules, and that simply has to be respected.
