Sparrow House

is the solo project of Jared Van Fleet, a member of the mighty Voxtrot. If you’re expecting a sound anything even remotely like that from Sparrow House though, prepare to be surprised.

The sound of Sparrow House can only be described as folk, and will inevitably draw comparisons with Iron & Wine. The songs began as part of Van Fleet’s thesis at the University of Texas, and although this project was abandoned, some of the songs have now been salvaged and form the basis for debut EP.

You can hear two more songs, and of course be his friend over at his Myspace. The debut EP, entitled ‘Falls’, will be completed and released as soon as time can be found in between Voxtrot duties.

Apologies for the brevity of this post, due to me currently being in something of a hurry. Rest assured, a more concise post, including our first “mixtape” (“mixmp3s” just sounds dumb) will follow later on tonight.
