From a secluded basement in Brooklyn, songwriter Ben Yonda and an assemblage of folk singers, punk rock kids and classical musicians came together under the collective name of Cricket Spin. Fueled by a mixture of red wine and brightly colored sweets, the group gives us "Grains of Salt, Grains of Sand", the follow-up to Yonda''s debut release "You Are My Home". "Grains of Salt, Grains of Sand" features lush arrangements, adorned with orchestral swells and thoughtful melodies. Each song is built upon humble and intimate American folk structures. Cricket Spin takes this traditional format and weave in rock guitars, piano and woodwinds to create a symphony of bipolar pop music.
