Robert Ellis - Yesterday's NewsRobert Ellis is redefining himself with Yesterday's News a record of unhurried meditations delivered by an artist learning to slow down and appreciate the tiny miracles that make life worth living. Hailed by NPR for his "musical daring and impeccable song craft," and Rolling Stone for his "sharp eye for storytelling," Ellis recorded Yesterday's News to tape in just two days, embracing a raw minimalism that prizes patience and restraint above all else:

Drennon was also a well known arranger and producer on the underground Latin Circuit and produced this way out

Even if the titles may not all be familiar
