Garrett T. Capps and NASA Country bring "Everyone is Everyone" to the Benelux
Thu 13 Feb 2025"Everyone is Everyone" is Garrett T. Capps and NASA Country last release. The San Antone’s cosmic cowboys released their sophomore album in 2024, continuing an emphatically humanistic ethos that originated with the group's debut album, People Are Beautiful. However, Everyone is Everyone takes things further, blending positive psychology and celestial epiphany with cowboy prairie wisdom.
Garrett and NASA Country love San Antonio, but they also love blending space rock and country into a spicy mix they call ‘cowboy kraut.’ They also occasionally play Tex-Mex rock ‘n roll, and you can usually find Garrett at The Lonesome Rose, the honky-tonk bar he co-owns, if he’s not out on the road touring.
His excellent new record starts with “The Way It Goes Sometimes,” jumping right into the fast-paced motorik beat, mashed up with Garrett’s Texas twang, and featuring a swirling soundscape of deep-space instrumentation. Single “Flow State” presents this peaceful world view, which is reflected in a placid melody that meets somewhere between krautrock, Talking Heads and J.J. Cale. Quirky tex mex frontman Garrett T. Capps carries an eclectic taste throughout his songwriting and a heavy cosmic influence is delivered by modular-synth guru Justin Boyd, “the Brian Eno of the group.” Despite or perhaps because of the vast plane they cover in their influences, these bodhisattva bandoleros sound like nothing you’ve heard before.
As Everyone Is Everyone unfolds, Garrett T. Capps and NASA Country invite you into their cosmic honky-tonk galaxy, replete with alien guitars and Tex-Mex flavors. With each track, they weave together Texas roots and celestial grooves, creating a wild, psychedelic journey. Is it country music? Is it Krautrock? Definitions hardly matter, so just buckle up and enjoy Garrett’s strange musical universe.
