 Like a sweet Spring breeze after a long, cruel Winter, Cory Hanson’s blowing through town again. And like the wind, ‘I Love People’ comes from parts unknown. Need a ride? Long as you’re ready to find yourself wherever it dies down, jump on!
 Followers of Cory’s twin arcs as solo singer and Wand member will be intrigued to learn that the line-up here is the same band that recorded last year’s ‘Vertigo’. Wand’s ‘Masters of Unbounded Space’ robes have been traded in for Wrecking Crew trucker’s caps, as they reel out licks both tasty and smooth, like chopsmeisters of yore. That’s Robbie Cody co-producing behind the desk, Evan Backer playing bass and arranging strings and horns, Evan Burrows on drums and percussion and Cory on piano, guitars and voices and songs.
 Cory’s songs ensnare the 1970s singer songwriter in a feedback loop, drawing additional inspiration from the indelible everyman melodies of the American Songbook. With gilded threads and emboldened needling, ‘I Love People’’s songs are rendered with immediacy and a deep-pile Hollywood production sound that radiates affluence and comfort, even in the darkest and coldest nights way out beyond the range of any signal.
