Feature: Stephen Foster - 'Sun to Rise' EP -- Obscure Sound
Santa Cruz-based singer-songwriter Stephen Foster captivates on his new EP, Sun to Rise, with a sound that spans from the title track’s radiant folk/rock cohesion to the eerily haunting nostalgia of his take on “Chim Chim Cher-ee.” Consistent throughout is a knack for inviting, emotionally resonating songwriting, often with enjoyable shades of Elliott Smith.

The result is a thoroughly consuming production, which also features multi-instrumentalist Jake Hawrylak, in addition to Hauck on vocals, guitar, and piano. The
