Originally from Michigan, Ty Maxon now calls Chicago home. Calling of the Crows is the singer/songwriter's sixth release. Featuring intricate, finger-picked guitar, subdued harmonica, soft vocal harmonies, and unfussy production, Calling of the Crows conjures images of life, love, and loss. One can't help but to compare Ty Maxon's stark music to that of Elliot Smith or Nick Drake. Rebecca Ruth
