Faces on Film's Some Weather reviewed in the Boston Globe
Jonathan Perry of the Boston Globe reviews Faces on Film's new album Some Weather. Perry compares Fiore to some of indie's greats by noting, "With his poetically opaque eye and a penchant for vocal reverb rivaled only by My Morning Jacket’s Jim James, Neko Case, and those dudes from Band of Horses, Fiore — a.k.a. Faces on Film — again casts his gaze in some divine directions". To read more follow the link here.
