The ballad _Mother Earth_ is acoustically organic, delivering the listener an early Neil Young feel with bewitching flutes and bongos. Over the course of recent years, The Cairo Gang has been a lingering passion for Emmett Kelly, a stimulated singer/songwriter with an impressive list of musicians in his rolodex. Performing with a back up band or solo, Kelly always brings a freshened thrill to the world of quiet rock music. After mastering countless instruments, Kelly decided to put his skills to work and record some tunes that have been afloat in his headspace. And thank the heavens he did, because this album perfectly tweaks the butterflies in all of our stomachs. Deep, soft rock for tobacco tinged hearts, that’s The Cairo Gang in a nutshell.
The Cairo Gang has toured w/ Beth Orton & was a guest on the Will Oldhem album "The Letting Go" recorded in Reykjavík, Iceland
While there's nothing new about the Cairo Gang's debut full-length, none of it sounds canned or dated either. How do they make oft-cited influences sound fresh? Long answer: The Cairo Gang take the instrumentation of gentle British 70's folk with the free-form composition and detached, beard-stroking vibe of post-rock, all executed with the fidelity and humility of homespun indie rock. Short answer: The Cairo Gang cuts across musical movements of several years' span to create music sounding distinctly out of time.

Pearly Baker
this is one of the absolute most beautiful songs! what a man. a soul. that shines right through.
Val Marsiglia
Hadn't heard this in a few years, forgot how damn good it is.
caitlin hunter
Such a true artist. Creates not for financial gains or status. Beautiful album. Will Oldham is prolific, just look at his catalog. In a changed world how refreshing that someone contributes artistically based on desire and not commerce.
Tom Hartman
one of the best songs ever made
Thomas K.
This song has punched me in the gut anew.
Bad Voodoo
