If you're going to make a career out of creating indie-folk music, you better make sure it can move mountains, because if it doesn't, your album will forever be in the insomnia relief section at your local pharmacy and not in people's ears. It's a polarizing genre for some, we get that, but when it comes to the music that Hayden Calnin creates, it's impossible not to fall under its majestic spell. The Aussie singer/songwriter has been in our ears previously with his inclusion on Oliver Tank's "You Never Know", but aside from that, we've never been privy to his original material. Of course, that's now changed with the release of his unbelievable debut EP, Oh, Hunter. Released back on, February 21st, this debut effort has been sizzling beneath the surface, waiting to boil out but enjoying quiet success along the way. Boasting a flawless track-to-track resume, Oh, Hunter, will not have you falling asleep; rather, you'll be immersed into such ethereality that you may never want to leave the space this astonishing five-track EP puts you in. Oh, Hunter is available on iTunes now.
