Colin Spring - How I Came to Cry These Tears of Cool

Colin Spring's fourth album, How I Came to Cry These Tears of Cool, features members of the Screaming Trees, Young Fresh Fellows, Walkabouts, Jesse Sykes, Artis the Spoonman and others. Colin gravitates toward classic 60s and 70s folk in musical style and delivery but he also enjoys conversations about early 80's punk rock, counter culture movements and the literature and arts that defined them. He tries to make music that is intelligent and literary while maintaining the warts of crude and beautiful folk art. You come in here for the narrative and leave with a piece of proletariat wisdom.
