Frank LoCrasto - "Simple Times"

Frank LoCrasto is a New York based multi-instrumentalist and you could probably say his music is multi-genre. Going by the tags he has placed on his bandcamp page to describe his music.... '50's 60's ambient americana brazilian instrumental lo-fi stride surf tape western,' you kind of get the idea. I could actually add a few to that list as well. His second album 'El Dorado' was released in 2011 and the opening track "Simple Times" sets the tone perfectly. The album was released by a cool little record label called 'Hundred Pockets Records' and they got their name from a Friedrich Nietzsche quote "when one has much to fill them with, a day has a hundred pockets". So discovering Frank LoCrasto and the record label at the same time, that is two pockets nicely filled.
