"It's lo-fi indie-pop, with cold and cheap instrumentation, deceptively joyful vocal lines and depressing lyrics. A masterpiece!"
This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.

FANDCAMP: Nameless
"When I heard the first song I just stopped what I was doing. After the next track I bought the album and by track three I was in love."

FANDCAMP: The French Press
"Amazing, fresh jangle rock in the vain of the go betweens and REM. But they’re on their own kick. Can’t wait to hear what they do next."
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ ADELAIDE
"I love getting mail, even junk mail. I just love walking to the mailbox and opening it up to a surprise with my name on it. It feels sort of romantic and old fashioned I guess."
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ GEORGE MONTGOMERY DALLAS DAVIS
"Self help ain't so bad. But do not f*ck with that one about making friends and influencing people, that some sinister sh*t."
FANDCAMP: Billow Green
"Brian Barth's music is some serious ear candy! Sure comparisons to a slew of other obscure indie songwriters could be made, Zammuto, Akron Family (the early years) or perhaps Jose Gonzalez. However, Names delivers with a class and intimacy that is all his own.”
FANDCAMP: Around The Well
“Please remember that The Trapeze Swinger is as close to perfection as you can get with music or any other art form. Beautiful songwriting. A true masterpiece.”
Mix Tape Radio: Episode 042

FANDCAMP: Make Way For Love
“A nice crooner that reminds me of a deeper-voiced Roy Orbison but darker in tone like Timber Timbre.”
FANDCAMP: Sheepy Love
“This album makes me feel like i'm on a camping trip with my best friends on a beach in space. Seriously what a sweet lo fi 5 track record.”
