A veteran of the Pittsburgh and DC music scenes, now-Baltimorean Glenn Ricci has struck out on his own to create the solo project Lunatic Dog. On his first album, "70 West," the listener can hear a patchwork of sounds that fed and inspired Ricci over the years--indie guitars, electronics, eerie sound effects, intense songwriting, and heartfelt vocals. Ricci's wife, Ursula Marcum, adds her vocal talent to several tracks.
