Kasey Anderson / The Wandas / The Rationales July 18, 2012

Kasey Anderson, opener for the Counting Crows, draws the latest chapter of his journey with his new album, Let the Bloody Moon Rise.

Known for being "equally at home with introspective ballads as he is with political dirges," Anderson inhabits the foggy regions of the soul. Let the Bloody Moon Rise was written as a conversation between lovers—two people who have survived something. Many different sounds come together on the album to reflect the ever-broadening consciousness of the songwriter behind them.
