It was only last month that we hyped From Dust, the impressively textured and atmospheric debut EP from composer/producer Danny Godwin. The Lexington native and keyboardist, who described himself as a bit of a band “sideman” in the Boston music scene, used the record as an outlet for his solo compositions. Now he’s caught our attention once again as a member of Valleyheart, a Beverly-based rock band that celebrates their new EP Nowadays with a release party this Saturday at Remix in Salem.
The first song off the EP, the more upbeat and guitar-forward track “Kids From Cavalry”, a definite departure from Godwin’s solo work, can he heard below via Soundcloud.
Though the sound is different, the aim of Valleyheart, which features former members of Exiting the Fall, is pretty similar to Godwin’s. Frontman Kevin William Klein tells HM about Nowadays: “The EP explores redefining what purpose, peace, and an authentic faith looks like for us today, and how we remain connected in light of all the crazy, strange, unexpected turns life takes.”
We’re excited to hear more.
