<div style="font-family: times;">
Unknown lo-fi loner/downer folk EP from Pasadena, CA on the Custom Fidelity label. All songs written by James Gooding.</div>
<div style="font-family: times;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: times;">
Song lyrics are deeply personal and introspective with "Working Man" seeming to be about author's relationship with his father.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<div>
All songs are endearing, with acoustic & electric guitar elements and primitive makeshift percussion accompanying some tracks.</div>
