Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
Southerly is the solo project of Krist Krueger formerly of dharmakaya (the band), and Alaska Airlines. This project, formerly titled French Canadian Americ Anindian, features an eclectic array of guitars, piano, and vocals. Southerly broods in the realm of experiment and does not adhere to a typical artsy folk acoustic sound. It features well constructed guitar lines, with the indie appeal of well placed and often occuring hooks. The overall outcome of sound creates a mood reminiscient of the darker side of the human dilemma. Music that reflects both vocally and instrumentally the standard sad state of affairs but leaves the ends open to personal judgement. It is music to be enjoyed at home with headphones on by candle light, but with company near by.

Product Description
Best Dressed And Expressionless is a concept album about death, loss, mourning and resolve. The record is about and dedicated to four close friends and family members who recently passed away. The songs describe the individuals and the lessons taken from their lives while also delving into the pain of loss and the utter reality of an inescapable mortality. Burrowing through the grieving process this record is somewhat medicinal. It sends-off those passed-on. The last song on the album, Goodbye says it all in its name. It professes the final conclusion derived from the grieving process by the author.

      Album Description

      "Southerly sounds more like Damien Rice's O or Jeremy Enigk's solo album The Frog Prince, with the sound firmly rooted in acoustic guitars and folk while sidestepping the usual pitfalls of folk-rock." -- THE PULSE

      The 2005 full-length from Portland's Southerly, Best Dressed and Expressionless is a concept album dedicated to four close friends and family members who all passed away around October 2003. Each "Accidental" is about one of the four individuals, personalized by the memories remaining after their passing.
