The music of Half-Handed Cloud (aka John Ringhofer) is about the closest thing I've heard to the youthful, spastic, multi-instrumental folk twanging of The Danielson Famile. And let's face it, they are a band whose sound is not easily imitated. It should come as no surprise, then, that he is also on Sufjan Stevens'
Asthmatic Kitty label and writes songs with a Christian bent. Recently Asthmatic Kitty released an EP of 5 recordings that Ringhofer did with Sujfan over at Daniel Smith's recording facility. The result is the
What's The Remedy? 7", a quick burst of joyful little songs accented by toy piano and flute sounds. Check out this charming track offered on the AK website now.

i've heard the record and he doesn't just write with a christian bent, he writes with a christian tectonic plate-shifting force. it's also a lot more annoying than the famile, somehow.
