Joel Arant’s debut album is Interesting quirky Americana that might remind you more of Daniel Johnston than the Jayhawks, with a slight hint of Michael Stipe. Arant is a long-time member of the Iowa City music scene, playing about a hundred gigs a year in the fair state. The album is available for an entirely free download at www.joelarant.com. -Pete
