Duff Thompson’s second album Shadow People expands from his folk roots to a more garage sound while maintaining the integrity of the first album. Without suffering from any sophomore album blues symptoms this record from Duff Thompson’s label, Mashed Potato Records, builds off the groundwork of his 2020 album Haywire. The standout tracks on the album are “Just Like Me” and “Shapeshifter” but all ten songs work together beautifully. Mashed Potato co-founder Steph Green, Kyle Taylor, and Mat Davidson make up the backing band including the pump organ, pedal steel, and bass clarinet. It still has the authenticity and emotion, but “Shadow People” is more complex and grittier. The album is an analog masterpiece.
