Featuring contributions from Andy Clausen (Fleet Foxes, The Westerlies), Finnegan Shanahan (Contemporaneous, New Amsterdam Records), James Quinlan (Sammy Rae And The Friends), and Ricky Petraglia (Escaper). Recorded at Saltlands Studio and in Ditmas Park, Brooklyn. Mastered by the Grammy-nominated Joe Lambert (Animal Collective, The Antlers, etc.). Released independently in 2015.

Pink Logos is the 3rd Sixty Ton Angel record, released by Aught/Void in 2021. Written and recorded in April 2020 while quarantined in Brooklyn with COVID-19 symptoms. The record represents a turning point in STA’s evolution, moving through and beyond hazy drones into an exploration of the limits of repetition and minimalism, culminating with an outpouring of unbridled emotion in the title track.

The Window is the third Sparrow album, released independently in 2019, months before the pandemic. Impossibly dense and riddled with the emotional detritus of lost faith, the record is Anderson’s most personal and visceral. Recorded with no budget in sublet bedroom studios throughout Brooklyn, the epic scope of the record bursts at the seams of it’s mid-fi constraints. Featuring contributions from Chloe Rowlands (Fleet Foxes, The Westerlies), Max Zooi (Sammy Rae And The Friends, Star The Moonlight), Helen Newby (Residente, Amaranth Quartet), Charls Ava, Finnegan Shanahan (Contemporaneous, New Amsterdam Records), Ricky Petraglia (Escaper), and Lauren Renahan.
