Bill Phelan from Maryland, USA has a new CD out, an album of 17 original songs, titled That Photograph.
It is influenced by The Byrds and the music of their heyday, so there are guitars and harmonies.
The album has been described as "an East Coast encapsulation of Laurel Canyon cool".
The album is listed on Bandcamp at
https://billphelan.bandcamp.com/album/that-photograph
The songs are also on YouTube (under his name) and are available for streaming on pretty much every music streaming service.
From the Folkden:
"This is a rare recording of me playing with Bobby Darin and his band at the Coconut Grove nightclub in Hollywood circa 1963. I’m playing my Vega 5-string banjo and singing harmony."
Here’s an interesting silent movie of the original 5 men Byrds rehearsing and waiting backstage before appearing on US TV in 1966.
