LIKE THE EAGLES ON ROBITUSSIN, FLYING CANYON PRESENT DARK, DISTINCT ODES TO CALIFORNIA'S GRAND LANDSCAPE IN SONG. EXISTING IN THE SUNBAKED TRADITION OF BURNT-OUT COSMIC CALIFORNIANS LIKE SKY SUNLIGHT SAXON, SKIP SPENCE, PHIL PERLMAN, THE ROCKETS AND DAVID CROSBY, FLYING CANYON PERFORM MINIMALIST FOLK/COUNTRY/ROCK SLOWED TO A FUNERAL CRAWL. HELMED BY CAYCE LINDNER (HIMSELF THE SONIC HEIR TO KRISTOFFERSON'S THRONE), THE SONGS OF FC ARE WRAPPED IN DISTANT CANYON REVERB WITH BOOMING FUZZ BASS & HEAVY PERCUSSION UNDERNEATH. LINDNER, WITH A TRILLING DELIVERY OF THE NEIL YOUNG/JERRY GARCIA AXIS, WEAVES MOURNFUL TALES OF ETERNAL LOVE AND DESPAIR. FLYING CANYON'S SELF-TITLED DEBUT IS THE SOUND OF A WARPED CSN&Y CASSETTE PLAYING ON A BOOMBOX DEEP IN A RAVINE SOMEWHERE (IN CALIFORNIA). BACKING LINDNER IN FLYING CANYON ARE SHAYDE SARTIN (KELLEY STOLTZ, SKYGREEN LEOPARDS) AND JEWELLED ANTLER'S GLENN DONALDSON (SKYGREEN LEOPARDS, THUJA, IVYTREE).
