Phosphorescent is set to follow up his Willie Nelson tribute album, To Willie, with a fresh batch of original tunes. Here’s To Taking It Easy will be released on May 10th via Dead Oceans.
Unlike his last haunting and introspective album of original work, Pride, his latest features a full band on tracks reminiscent of early 70′s Stones and Bob Dylan’s Street Legal. I can’t wait.

Wow, this track is great. Can’t wait to get this!
Right, it’s totally amazing
I like this song… just not as much as Pride. That album gives me chills everytime I listen to it.
Phosphorescent is the solo project of Matthew Houck, an artist based in Brooklyn, New York. To date, Houck has released three full-length albums under the Phosphorescent moniker.
We were very fortunate to have Phosphorescent visit the freqControl Sessions to record live, in-studio performances of three of their songs, and one Willie Nelson cover. You can check it out at http://www.freqcontrol.com. Hope you enjoy!
