IN THE BLOSSOM OF THEIR SHADE (INDIES ONLY)

Pokey LaFarge s 7th studio solo album In the Blossom of Their Shade showcases the positivity of coming out of the darkness and into the light. When the 2020 global pandemic hit LaFarge s rigorous work ethic powered him through the potentially challenging creative period. As days became a couple months songs blossomed from embryonic ideas into full-formed ones and he was ready to move on which typified his mindset as a working artist. With this record LaFarge captures the thematic notion of being the perfect summer afternoon soundtrack..the type of music you want to listen to while having a cocktail with your significant other. It makes sense musically as well LaFarge intentionally crafted songs that created space and have melodies that can glide throughout a composition that s a far cry from the swing and blues-infused songs of his earlier work. LaFarge is an artist who refuses to rest on his laurels and compromise. He s always motivated and ready to create. With In the Blossom of Their Shade the album is one of LaFarge s strongest and most mature efforts to date.
