Holy Sons, brainchild of psychedelic songwriter Emil Amos, doesn’t play music that will brighten your day. Emil uses this project as an outlet for dealing with his own ghosts, and his dark, thoughtful, haunted songs don’t do anything to conceal that: the process obviously represents a rather effective form of self medication, considering he’s released eleven records since 2000 (two of them in 2014). Emil recently moved to NYC (from Portland), recruited musicians to re-form his band, and has been playing several gigs in and around Brooklyn. You can catch him at the upcoming Brain Cave Festival on April 25 at Baby’s All Right.
