Arbouretum

I see lead Singer/Songwriter of Arbouretum, Dave Heumann as a type of messenger. The progressive psychedelic folk type. And if you allow yourself to become completely immersed in their sound, especially on last album ‘The Gathering’, you might find their remarkable ability to create stories and imagery with their music an experience bordering on meditative.
Go with them and they’ll take you on an uplifting and sometimes tribal, sonic pilgrimage. Even when the journey may be fraught with danger, there is such an irresistible quality to Dave’s vocal that you can’t help but feel that hope and redemption might be just around the corner. Either that or one of his outstanding guitar solo’s.
