Akron/Family's tighter three-piece configuration debuted with last year's Set 'Em Wild, Set 'Em Free. These demos, which the band posted to their Bandcamp page, are the first new things we've heard from Akron/Family since their Woody Guthrie project. Of the three demos (click on the title track to select one), the first, "Light Emerges," is the most complete. Akron/Family played "Light Emerges," and the third song, "Say What You Want," at their Music Hall Of Williamsburg show in March.
