Laith & the Texas Birds // Bob Sumner

https://laithmusic.bandcamp.com

Laith, known by some as Hutch Hartford, hails from the suburban hurricane of Houston, Texas. Laith�s music is soaked with memories of Grandma and Grandpa�s bayou house, rides on a red vintage lawn mower packed with cousins, and smoky, music filled bars.

�I�m kind of a junkie for sad songs and ballads,� says Bob Sumner, the younger half of Vancouver-based Americana outfit The Sumner Brothers. �As a teenager most of my friends were into hip-hop, but I felt pretty out of place rolling around suburban White Rock, British Columbia, pumping gangster rap.� Sitting in his room with his headphones on, Sumner compiled downhearted mixtapes pulling together the more introspective songs of CCR, The Band, Led Zeppelin, Emmylou Harris.
