"Dutch-American songwriter based in Denver, Colorado, Kramies Windt was far away one of the best kept secrets of American indie-pop. We're willing to bet that these six songs will emerge him from the shadows for good. It is first of all the name of  "Wooden Heart EP", which will be brought to our attention, published  by the Australian label Hidden Shoal Recordings. The next name is that of Jason Lytle, tormented soul of great Grandaddy. Not surprising, really, that the bearded genius of Modesto is felt concerned by Kramies songs. As Grandaddy (or it's leaders'  solo work), Kramies operates in an in-between exciting, feet firmly rooted in the folk-rock land and floating in the heavens a melancholy pop and vaguely psychedelic mind. If it is first wrapped by an impeccable setting, with an electronic service of audio and vice versa, it is ultimately the incredible writing this dreamy pop-folk quality and air that holds the attention. The song "Wooden Heart", which has the good idea to remind our memory of the already forgotten The Earlies, making it the perfect demonstration gradually emerging from an introductory fog, aerial melody propels the song to heights once frequented by Mercury Rev. With Kramies, we now know that Colorado is best seen from above."
