Mike Vial

A World's That's Bigger

2016-11-28

This is a really cool album. He sounds very similar to a Drew Nelson or Nick Drake(Which Mike was influenced by for this album). Mike actually took the time to sit down in a cabin up north, and put down some good tunes. The entire album is just him doing all the songs by himself, and is recorded inside of the cabin. So with that being said when you give it a listen keep it in mind how good it sounds, and the fact it was done inside a cabin. I thought it was awesome, and appreciate the local music. Tracks 1,2, 5 were my favorite for sure.
