Bear Cub

It features Polish double bassist & composer Maciej Sadowski, whose string work evokes living, growling images of an animalistic nature while Kevin Scott Davis' guitar and piano lines provide a developing story as the dialogue between instruments takes shape into a dense, nocturnal, musical forest.

I Can't Let Go
“Can’t Let Go” is the first in a series of singles ...and represents Davis’ first release as Glowworm in a decade. The music has matured, employing a fuller sound and broader textural palette, including vocals, but the ethereal, downtempo style is unmistakably Glowworm. ‘Can’t Let Go’ is a haunting piece of music “about moving forward,” according to Davis. It features a beautiful vocal performance by Avery Leigh Draut (Pittsburgh Symphony, University of Georgia Opera Theatre), as well as drummer John O’Reilly, Jr. (Jim Adkins, EL VY, Jason Mraz, fun.), and mixer Andy LeMaster (Bright Eyes, Conor Oberst, Azure Ray, Drive-By Truckers)." - The Big Takeover

The Coachlight Woods
“With this debut, Glowworm add a worthy entry to post-rocks already bulging canon. Taking cues from outfits like Mogwai and Explosions In The Sky, the records bread and butter are melody and tension. In creating tension, The Coachlight Woods distinguishes itself by virtue of its details. Front and centre among these details are the contributions of string player Tony Rogers, whose play on cello and viola is concise, versatile and intuitive. Just as important are the albums ample ambient flourishes, which provide much-needed breathing room in the midst of the vigorous instrumental pomp that defines the record. On an album filled with as many exclamations as this one, these counterpoints are vital. Without them, the result would have been a considerably more tiring and predictable listen. Instead, this Portland, OR duo have created an engaging record built on clever melodic interactions that clearly define their sound.”
