Eagle Winged Palace doesn’t just sound like the ’60s – the L.A. quintet sounds like the ghosts of that decade, rattling around in your closet and maybe your consciousness. The folk-noir made by Eric “Cashew” Harding and bandmates is a patchwork of acoustic guitar, spacey keyboards and boy/girl vocals, at times enchanting and at others a bit of a melody-challenged pastiche. The band’s debut album “Where We’re Coming From” (out last week on Western Crest Records) might be best enjoyed by black light.
