Let’s ease ourselves into the week with a little help from New York folky Alec Gross. Simplicity is key here – a Ryan Adams-esque vocal is accompanied by nothing more than a guitar and a mandolin, but the sound fills the speakers like a rush of air into a vacuum; anything more, you feel, would be superfluous. His Sorry Sorry Sun EP is out now and available here.
