Grammy-nominated trumpeter John Raymond and Bon Iver member S. Carey have teamed up to release a new album,Shadowlands, and they shared its first single, “Calling.”
There’s a certain eerie vulnerability present in every second of S. Carey’s music.

But, in his words, there is still much work to be done, especially when it comes to the expression of his own emotions.
