Delicious Sound We're delighted to announce the summer 2008 release of LoveKrafty's new album Rad i/o on the Muddy Sunshine label. For this most refreshing album, the artist poured his background of England, New York City, Atlanta, Nashville, and Los Angeles into a cocktail shaker, then added a dash of Beatles and whispers of electronica, rock, and blues. We highly recommend Rad i/o both shaken and stirred. Enjoy a sip at www.lovekrafty.com.
