When you don’t know much, you let the music tell the story – Ehroehed
So I don’t know how I got a hold of these songs, but I recently found them again. They are not even on an album as far as I know and I can’t find too much on this Vancouver artists. I think I might have discovered Ehroehed a few years back due to a 3hive…

Brian Borcherdt releases double album and new video. Slowcoustic raises hands to heavens, pauses to reflect…

Song of the Day (and new discovery) “Time’s Ticking” from Isbells!
