With I See Hawks In L.A., multi-instrumentalist Tommy Jordan, Nashville keys ace Chris Tuttle and Gabe Witcher as his backup band, this album is the return of Gerry Spehar: encompassing leisurely swamp grooves, fingerpicked folk, country funk, and some psychedelic country rock: "I Hold Gravity."

​

It's the upside of a long hiatus: the spirit of the 70s, fresh and unbattered and ready for a world that needs a bit of optimism and, yes, erudition. It's country, folky, dark, witty. Alt country from an OG picker.
