Last year we were introduced to the magical and fun sounds of Snowy Plover, the project of multi-instrumentalist Lane Barrington (The Ocean Floor) and Daphne Jane Faison.
The Portland, Oregon based pair released yesterday their debut EP, Saturna. We had already heard the jubilant ‘Frozen Dessert Adventure’, one of the tracks now also featured in the EP, along with five new luscious ones, all “carefully wrapped in cloud fluff and containing hidden coves of animal friendships, dreamy landscapes, and horizons blooming with adventure”, as they put it themselves.
To whet your appetite, here’s one of the tracks off the EP, ‘Cat Heaven Island’. Listen to it below and head over to their bandcamp to grab the full EP for free. Enjoy!

Earlier this year, Lane Barrington’s brainchild project The Ocean Floor was stripped down from the quintet who put out one of our favourite records of 2012, to a one man project, following the amicable departure of long time member Shannon Rose Steele.

The talented multi-instrumentalist and singer has recently unveiled his brand new outfit called Snowy Plover, also comprising fellow Portland resident Daphne Jane Faison.
We are thrilled to share their jubilant debut track ‘Frozen Dessert Adventure’, described by the pair as “a tale of backyard explorations, wild animal friends, and the search for delicious!”.  Enjoy.
