Co-Pilgrim = Mist and Mast + M. Ward
Co-Pilgrim are back after a number of years with album number three, Plumes. This album is a solid and hauntingly beautiful 10-track, melodic pop album. Together, Mike Gale, Joe Bennett, Tom Wenzel, Andy Reaney and Claire Bennett play guitars, bass, vocals, keyboards, string instruments and percussion to amplify each song in a bittersweet manner—and by bittersweet, I mean that the lyrics are perfectly written and harmonized to be both happy and sad at the same time. Songs like, “Dancin’ Hoods” epitomize how Plumes is the soundtrack for staring at the stars while feeling everything deeply. –Lizz Corrigan
