Tobin Sprout “Empty Horses” LP

Empty Horses finds Tobin Sprout working in a quieter mode, favoring acoustic folk, country-rock textures, and reflective singer-songwriter arrangements.

• The former Guided by Voices guitarist steps away from lo-fi power pop here for a quieter mix of acoustic folk, country-rock, and singer-songwriter material.
• Songs including “The Return,” “On Golden Rivers,” “Every Sweet Soul,” and the title track emphasize Sprout's understated melodic writing.
• The sparse arrangements give the record a reflective, intimate feel that contrasts with much of Sprout's earlier indie-rock work.

For fans of Guided by Voices, Elliott Smith, and Sparklehorse.
