Kelly Doyle

Thieves

'Thieves' is a document of Kelly Doyle’s 30 years as a musician steeped in country, jazz and ‘50s exotica. Marked by freedom and restraint, he showcases his ability to unreel, flex, tease, cajole, inundate, and revel within the bounds of a single work. Composed for saxophone and guitar, 'Thieves' offers an interplay of timbres that brings delicacy to complex melodies—tethered by unflinching bass and drums.

Bay State Lullaby - 2026 Reissue

"This album documents me trying to make sense of major changes in my life - the end of an era (the 2003 breakup of Say ZuZu) and the start of an era (I got married, moved from a small town to the city, had two kids, and started a new career as an ethnomusicologist all during the time it took to complete this record). The album also finds me searching for my own musical voice outside of Say ZuZu. I wanted a sound built around an acoustic guitar, somewhere between Neil Young’s 'Out On The Weekend' and Merle Haggard’s 'Mama Tried'. It was a time where my life deviated from the script that I thought had been written for me. I was, as the song says, happy and confused. This record helped me to sort out the confusion." - Cliff Murphy

Cynical Vision

"Cynicism is a little too popular right now. Winning arguments are more prized than finding solutions. It’s all an unfair representation of humanity. Cynical Vision is my most modern record in sound and substance about the place we’re in presently. I’ve turned some of our latest dooms into satire so we can look at it through honest eyes. We have– at least in our society– gone down a pretty wacky path and can’t steer the ship right until we acknowledge it. I hope this record is cathartic and resonant while being lighthearted and fun. I made it with my friend and producer Nate Nelson who was a fabulous engineer while I had a ball playing most of the instruments. We didn’t think too hard about it. We just made art for the times." - Spencer Thomas
