Ear Candle Productions now has a Bandcamp presence! We love Bandcamp and support and patronize our friends there, so it makes sense to bring our three active artists into the fold. Bandcamp has, over a scant few years, grown into a vast and intricate community of independent artists as well as a gorgeous platform where curious listeners can sample an artist’s wares and buy individual tunes or whole albums on the spot.
You can find our Bandcamp pages on the menu to the right, or go here for The Granite Countertops:

The penultimate video from the Granite Countertops album, PLANETS DON’T TWINKLE. (One more to go!) Let’s just say it stands for “free form spectacular”, or maybe “familiar frustration song”. A cry from the heart. Whimsical and deadly serious. Here, have some noise.

The next video from PLANETS DON’T TWINKLE. Once again we filmed the performance in our hotel room at the Hard Rock Hotel in Lake Tahoe. The eldritch abominations were channeled from the 2016 GOP primary. A comment on our current level of socio-political discourse. Can’t we do better? Get the song here!

Recently, the Granite Countertops were asked to contribute a track to an upcoming tribute album devoted to the music of Baltimore singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/home recording artist Linda Smith. We chose one of Linda’s most inspiring songs, “It’s Now”. It came out so well that we decided to put it out as a single on Ear Candle Productions. (The artwork here is based on one of Linda’s own paintings.)
