Jesse Jerome Jenkins has been writing psychedelic Americana songs as part of Texan quartet Pure X since 2009. Hard Sky marks his solo debut. Across material tinged with country, R&B, folk, blues, and jazz, Jenkins reflects on the peaks and valleys of life—his falsetto even more comforting in this pensive, heightened capacity—with “the languid sway of a porch swing at dusk, ” . Though largely a personal affair, friends from Pure X, S U R V I V E, and Inc. No World, joined in to fill out the album’s sound. It’s the maiden release on new label Uniform Group.

Less than a year has passed since Pure X released their second album, and yet here we are today with the news of a new one under way. The Texas band recently signed to Fat Possum and their third album, Angel, should arrive on April 1st. It does sound like a cruel April Fool’s Day joke, but new singe “Starlight” is anything but. If most of Crawling Up the Stairs was draped in a weird tormented melancholia, this one is feels like breezy walk in the sunset. And even though there is little left of the foggy lo-fi psych of their curious, but irresistible 2011 debut album Pleasure, I find myself liking their simplified, classical sounding harmonies on “Starlight”.
