BLUE DESERTS w/ AIR SIGNS

The hottest deserts make the bluest music. Masters of wailing guitar riffs and melancholic moans from two sun-soaked landscapes, the western Sahara and American Southwest.

Air Signs is the artist name of Kourtney Kyung Smith. She’s interested in unexpected sonic relationships that span space & time.
