Greylag

New Music | Greylag - Black Crow

Greylag – Black Crow I’m really enjoying this band Greylag and their upcoming debut EP, The Only Way To Kill You, in specifics their single, “Black Crow”. The Portland, OR band’s sound is a bit of meditative folk music, almost like an inner monologue of the singer. The subtle

Their album (titled Phantom Limb) drops 2/28 and they’ve released album opener “$100.” Its reverb drenched, grungy introduction relents to
