about

George's 2013 album takes rural instrumentation like violin, mandolin, and guitar and marries them with theatre, punk rock, and R&B to produce something probably best described as Urban Folk.

The title "Transcendence. Problematic." explores our culture's obsession with self-help (i.e. politics, religion, tribes) as an escape which polarizes us from the world, rather than acts of compassion, connection, and justice which engage the world. Lyrical, erotic, and spiritual. Playfully human. Music for the Living.

The Herd of Butterfly are pilgrims in the search for the ground of Being. Standing with those that have dropped their ice cream cones.

Ryan Adams meets Gin Blossoms, kinda.
