Barney Cortez, a.k.a. BARNES, recently shared a new single called “Sun of The City,” featuring longtime collaborative partner Nick Bockrath (Cage The Elephant, ex-Nicos Gun/The Rich Mystics) and vocalist Katie Schecter. Acoustic and pedal steel guitar are delicately stitched together as a thought-filled walk unfolds words of wisdom and past events. There’s a duality in the intimate, inviting, folk sound and the chill of individual isolation that the lyrics depict. BARNES is slated to appear this Wednesday, April 18 in NoLibs at Ortlieb’s, with The Mysteries and Lady HD.
