Matthew Logan Vasquez, Delta Spirit’s frontman, officially went solo late last year with his Austin EP. He’s set to follow that up with Solicitor Returns, a self-released LP that sees him go a bit scuzzier than his Delta Spirit fans might be used to. “The main difference between this and Delta Spirit would be, my solo music is far less thought out,” Vasquez said “It’s more shot from the hip, and done-in-three-takes type of music.” Most of the vocals on lead single “Everything We Do Is Out” are growled rather than sung, and while we wouldn’t exactly call it angry, it’s certainly aggressive. On second single “Maria,” he makes his guitar cry a little bit, dropping the growl for some more plaintive storytelling. Look for him on tour.
