{"product_id":"maurer-nick-come-on-in-new-lp","title":"Maurer, Nick \/ Come On In! – New LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eNick Maurer’s Come On In! is the stuff of a modern American fable. The 20 year-old Cincinnatian’s first release on Happy Families feels wise beyond years but is equally moving in its innocent enthusiasm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ciframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=1219635839\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/transparent=true\/\" seamless\u003eCome On In! by Nick Maurer\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach track is its own kaleidoscopic universe. The listener can catch a glimpse inside through its lyrics (hushed, or exclamatory, or clever and observant), or instrumentation (lush and shimmering; its own living thing). It brings to mind the folkloric storytelling of Daniel Johnston, Jonathan Richman’s longing, danceable rhythms, and at its best, reminds you of walking through a neighborhood block party on a hot summer night.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNick Maurer is watching a busy street parade from an open window many stories up, and Come On In! describes to us each passerby. His production incorporates the sounds of the environment: chirping cicadas, whirring bicycle spokes, crowds whooping and cheering. This remaster of his first release includes live recordings and then some. Three spoken-word interludes from anonymous guests punctuate the 20-track, remastered-for-vinyl album that include live performances with his band The Grocers, field recordings, and stories told solo on guitar.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten while still in highschool and recorded using his\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ecellphone, Come On In! feels timeless.
