Originally from Eau Claire, Wisconsin, Airis's recordings have remained rooted in a "four track forever" ethos, both in composition and sound as he's migrated East for the past decade.

J.M. Airis has just released an album called Indian Summer , and the photos below are from the record release show at Fontana's on Monday night, which was a total party and a total treat to my ears.

My favorite tunes are "Little Arrows" and "Numbers [...]
