Strand of Oaks And The Healing

There’s more to the title of this record than four letters stuck in CAPS LOCK. It’s not a corporate acronym but a humble four letter word that is both a whispered prayer and bellowed marching order: HEAL. The new album from Strand of Oaks, Timothy Showalter’s one man Philly band, […]
