Release Notes:

Recently transplanted from San Francisco to Los
Angeles, rootsy pop rocker Rich McCulley removed
himself from a city of heartbreak so as to find the
right headspace to work it out in song. Far From My
Angel is just that exercise, a cycle that begins
with shock and frustration, clear from the opening
track "First Word", with its lead-in line, "I left
my heart in San Francisco." Its then brought around
to understanding and release, as the disc closes
with the powerful and driving "I Am Free". And an
exuberant way to go, as this self-produced disc
jangles and grinds its way through a series of
vitriolic rockers ("Hope Youre Happy"),
introspective roots-pop ("Waterfall"), blues-tinged
grooves ("Follow Me Down") and bare acoustic alt.
country ("8 Years Ago Today"). All in all, this is
great songwriting and sounds in the Pete Droge vein,
that bites its way through the mystery of love lost
and musics healing properties.
