Yesterday I heard the Fauna Flora lp. Great to have new music from Steve
Ward. Looking around I found 2 posts on the Facebook Audities group from
earlier this year, but nothing here. Joe Pisapia (Joe, Marc's Brother &
Guster) play bass & presumably collaborated with Steve in some form. On
Bandcamp you can stream 4 of the songs and buy the cd and/or download
(Amazon's price is much higher).

AllMusic band bio, which is referenced on Fauna Flora's website:
Artist Biography by Timothy Monger
Pennsylvania indie rock quartet Fauna Flora was formed in 2013 by
singer/songwriter Steve Ward. Ward first became known in the late '90s
as part of the power pop trio Cherry Twister, and later as a solo
artist, releasing two albums, Opening Night and See and Be Seen, in the
2000s. After taking some time off from recording, Ward, along with
bassist and longtime collaborator Joe Pisapia, keyboardist Matt Thomas,
and drummer Paul Murr, formed a new recording project based on Ward's
thoughtful and intricately melodic pop songwriting. Recorded and
produced by the band at Ward's barn studio in Marietta, Pennsylvania,
Fauna Flora's lushly arranged, self-titled debut was released in April
2014, followed by their first live shows later that summer.
Cheers!
