Torri Weidinger and Jackson Wooten have joined forces and the end result is Garden Gloves, an indie folk duo of some considerable talent.
Their first project together is Outside The Chateau Apartments which turns out to be a very well-refined project, indeed.
On songs like Somewhere Forever and Elegy the way that the two artists’ voices interleave is really impressive and it’s nice to see their vocal talents take center stage to a gentle guitar backdrop.
Lover, I is a song that dreams of escape from the mundane world and into one where we can truly fulfil our own potential and it’s glorious.
And the EP wraps up with a giddying instrumental piece in 55 degrees which just feels right, somehow.
The artists say that the Outside The Chateau Apartments is all about the importance of finding your place and your home in this world and we think that when you find it, you’ll want to listen to this EP in it.

The first time Nicholas went to a live gig, 31 years ago, it turned out to be an Iron Maiden secret gig and he became hooked on the music scene. He was one of the founding writers for Astro Zombie a heavy metal and new world techno-inspired zine and his interview with Rob Caggiano of Anthrax brought in over 300,000 readers. He’s based out of Southeast Asia now, but his love of music is as strong and diverse as ever.
