Straight out of the midwest, Iowa City native Kelly Pardekooper has released his sixth album, “Yonder”. While Mr. Pardekooper is currently based in L.A. and making the rounds in the local music scene, he is also making a name for himself with songs featured in television series (Sons of Anarchy, True Blood). Hushed and moody, “Yonder” prominently features this singer/songwriter’s quiet vocals while wisps of pedal steel and subtle snare are threaded throughout. Rebecca Ruth
