There are few sounds more soothing than the upbeat, hopeful tunes and 3-part harmonies of The Parson Red Heads<\/a>. Last I saw them, they were in the middle of a grueling tour to support their wonderful album Yearling, the band (and Evan in particular) valiantly fighting a nasty cold that was in full bloom for their Great Scott appearance. On their new EP, the 6-track Murmurations<\/a> (out March 20 on Timber Carnival Records<\/a>), there’s some somber thoughts and a wistful quality that adds considerable depth to a band I’ve already greatly admired. <\/p>\n
