Karl Blau came up in the Anacortes, Washington scene making music alongside artists like Laura Veirs and The Microphones before heading across the country to settle in Philly. 

While putting the finishing touches on his new album, Vultures Of Love — slated for release Oct. 18 — Blau delivers “Pasadena,” an alt-country song inspired by a friend-breakup and the yearning to reconnect.
