Earlier this Summer, Guy Blakeslee of The Entrance Band delivered his first solo album in ten years via Everloving Records. Produced by Chris Coady (Beach House, Yeah, Yeah Yeahs), Ophelia Slowly takes a step back from the dense rock sound his LA-based neo-psychedelic trio is known for, delving instead into a sparse, spooky dreamscape where drum loops, synthesizers, and the occasional acoustic guitar frame his always haunting vocal delivery. Recorded in New York in the fall of 2013, the album focuses on Blakeslee’s recent descent; wrestling with demons and angels alike, he has come through it victoriously, expressing the hopeful message of a modern day spiritual.
