After reading Terry O’Hara’s bio on bandcamp, I was compelled to delve into his second album, Bewildered. O’Hara who’s moniker, Summer-Winter, is apropos after surviving a deadly report from an ER physician. Once living with the certainty of life then given only a month to live, he healed and moved to rural Pennsylvania where he became “bewildered” by his life and life in general as well as the seasons which Bewildered nicely reflects. Some tracks have a light, ethereal feel of summer while others maintain a dark, despairing and haunting vibe of winter and the prospect of death.
