Raw, reflective, and thunderously intimate, “A Last Cold Kiss” plunges listeners into the heart of Calhoun’s Americana Acoustic Doom sound—a dark, stripped-down landscape where sorrow meets storytelling. With resonant acoustic guitars and his unmistakably powerful vocals, Calhoun channels the spirit of Wino , Neil Young , and Johnny Cash , while carving a deeply personal path all his own.
The full-length album ‘Angry Old Man’ will follow on July 18 , offering a potent mix of dark folk, haunting confessionals, and the swampy grit fans have come to expect from Calhoun’s solo work.
