      Oh Man
, the title song from her new solo record, now available at shanacleveland.bandcamp.com It’s a love song about what’s hidden.

from their  upcoming record.

As a matter of full disclosure, we’d like to mention that our very own Evan Flory-Barnes is the bassist on Jason Parker Quartet‘s version of Nick Drake’s

      Day is Done
