When AM and Radiohead get mentioned in the same piece, it can’t be a bad thing.

“LA Based musician AM has been chalking up favorable comparisons to Brian Wilson, Eels, and Beck for the fuzzy west coast psychedelia of his new album, Future Sons & Daughters. to get a flavor of it, head to www.amsounds.com to download a free five-track EP of a radio session he recently recorded for LA’s KCRW station. Growing up in New Orleans, AM was influenced by everything from Turkish folk to Brazilian tropicalia and classic r’n'b. To underline that point, he’s made a 15-track mixtape of songs that insipired the new album, which you can stream from www.bit.ly/AMmixtape. The wonderfully eclectic collection finds the Shadows sitting alongside Jorge Ben and David Axelrod rubbing shoulders with Jean-Claude Vannier. If that and the EP don’t make you an AM fan, nothing will.”- The Guardian UK, Chris Salmon
