Hogz in Dandyland

Add Date: June 7 

Artist: Hogz in Dandyland 

Album: Across a Miracle 

Label: Self-released 

Genre: Rock, psych pop 

Comments: Psychedelic pop-rock from Hogz in Dandyland, the project of musician Brad Hogge, whose stated influences range from Syd Barrett and The Jesus & Mary Chain to Robyn Hitchcock and Elliott Smith to Bob Dylan and The Byrds. That's a hodgepodge of musical styles, and as such Across a Miracle seems somewhat helter-skelter, but it does have some standout tracks: namely, the Hitchcock-leaning "Escher & Carrot Cake" and the Byrds-minded "Whatever It May Be".
