Coyote / Straight to the Heart

Chris Darrow's return as a recording artist in his own right. A remarkable double-album and testimony to Chris' immense musical skills and artistic vision. Two intimate concept albums paint a mythic picture of California's Inland Empire region (in the purely instrumental “Coyote“ suite) and present a very personal emotional landscape of a period marked by intense personal change (“Straight From The Heart“). Recorded at Chris' Claremont home studio with a small circle of friends and allies, this exclusive TAXIM release features spectacular artwork and comes in a double fold-out digipak.

“...they (the songs) lean upon nowadays radio hectic, show what it means to play music, if there is no electronic involved. And that simply feels good.“
