Singer-songwriter Danny Schmidt has put up the acoustic demos for his forthcoming new album Owls. It's just him on guitar and vocals, with his wife Carrie Elkin providing harmony vocals. The songs sound pretty good considering these are shoestring budget homemade recordings. The vocals sound warm and intimate, with a hint of natural echo. It raises the bar for the real thing considerably.
