Flowers From the Man Who Shot Your Cousin and others

Spinning on Air | May 18, 2010
Paris-based songwriter Morgan Caris records under the unusual name Flowers From the Man Who Shot Your Cousin. His songs (sung in English) are more subtly unusual, with gentle surfaces that belie their churning depths. Abrupt twists in the lyrics, and understated surprises in the music, tend to make listeners lose their balance and fall into an unusual place. We'll hear from Morgan's new, first album, and also from a few other musicians with surprising songs. Larkin Grimm brings us on a nine-minute, layered song-journey; Faun Fables takes us on her commute; 7 Year Rabbit Cycle sings of puppies, with percussive drama; and The Finches, Burd Early, and First Nation let us into their unique musical homes.
