Magic Trick

VINYL FORMAT. Comes with a digital download! Tim Cohen's third solo release, Magic Trick, finds him still fighting off the demons of a restless musical mind. In the twelve songs collected here, Tim traverses a wide range of conflicting moods while somehow always reinforcing his songs with messages of hope and positivity. "Don't Give Up," "I Am Never Going to Die," and "Flower" are perfect examples of the upbeat melancholy that has defined his solo work to this point. Joined by fellow soul searchers James Kim (Kelley Stoltz band; ex-The Court & Spark), Noelle Cahill, and Alicia Vanden Huevel (Aislers Set), along with other supportive friends, Cohen has taken long musical strides on this third LP, in terms of arrangement, recording, and overall risk-taking. Recorded at home on the reliable Tascam 388 during breaks from a busy touring schedule with The Fresh & Onlys, Magic Trick captures almost every moment of solitude, longing, and wonderment that passed through Tim's foggy mind throughout his transient 2010. Magic Trick is a record for all seasons, and should be listened to in the earliest morning.
