dandelion by Mike Samuelson

As a corduroy-pants-clad six year-old in the backseat of his dad's Pinto, Mike Samuelson first became aware of music when Booker T and the MGs' "Green Onions" came on the radio. It was by turns thrilling and frightening. The music on Dandelion represents Mike's ongoing attempt to understand that moment.

Mike Samuelson writes music angling for the space otherwise occupied by warped and discomfiting "on hold" music that leaves one rethinking their relationship to the world when all they wanted was to update their life insurance beneficiary's address on file.
