Product Details

Neal Casal brought Circles Around The Sun to life for the 2015 Fare Thee Well shows, originally commissioned to provide between-set music for the Dead's 50th anniversary celebration at Levi's Stadium and Soldier Field. That origin story could have defined them permanently as a tribute-adjacent project, but Casal, Adam MacDougall, Mark Levy, and Dan Horne had something else in mind entirely. *Let It Wander* is where that something else fully arrives.

LET IT WANDER signals a new beginning for the band as they move beyond their original musical mandate of evoking the spirit of the Dead and fully embrace their own personality. “More than anything, what you hear on this album is a band growing into its own sound,” Casal says. 

-- 
The songs on LET IT WANDER are focused and filled with imaginative musical turns. Horne and Levy form a veritable groove machine that knows intuitively when to tighten up and when to stretch out. They expand and collapse the rhythmic pocket around Casal and MacDougall, who pass melodies back and forth in an elaborate game of musical tag as they take turns adding color and shade from a seemingly endless kaleidoscope of cosmic sounds.
