RELEASES
Dutch singer-songwriter P.J.M. Bond releases the “Big Two-Hearted River: Part II” single as part of the three-song EP release to coincide with Ernest Hemingway’s birthday on July 21.

On October 6, P.J.M. Bond will release his debut album: “In Our Time,” inspired by Ernest Hemingway’s eponymous short-story collection published in 1925. Each of these songs transports the listener to the little universes created by Hemingway, while Bond shows off his chops as a multi-instrumentalist. On the album, Bond plays guitar, piano, flute, jew harp, blues harp, and organ. Bond collaborated with Ed Brooks (Fleet Foxes, R.E.M., Pearl Jam) for mastering on “In Our Time.” Read more
