Derek Smith and the Cosmic Vultures: “Waiting”
Big guitar sound. Derek Smith and the Cosmic Vultures craft music that hails from an era of complete confidence in the ability of the electric guitar to communicate every significant aspect of the human experience. They list five people in the band at Bandcamp, four guitarists and a drummer. But only four people are pictured in the banner photo at top? Did the drummer not make the cut? Our highlighted track “Waiting” is the second new single released by the band since their 2023 full-length Obscura. Are they collecting material for a new album? Smart money says guitars will figure prominently.
