In the Such Great Heights newsletter, I wrote about my friend Kyle Sowash, one of those essential characters who keep a local music scene going, and his great band the Kyle Sowashes, who personify indie rock to me https://t.co/vGhoiZwNKg

Here is the soundtrack for Chapter 8 from SUCH GREAT HEIGHTS, "Fake Empire." It's about when the fancier side of indie (think: anyone on the Dark Was The Night comp) was embraced within the halls of power, then replaced by more radio-friendly imitations. https://t.co/5KAQ5BhZzc
