Salt
from Ghost Box (Expanded) by SUSS

https://suss.bandcamp.com/track/salt-2

One or, I think, two members of SUSS were in a New Wave / Western band, Rubber Rodeo, out of Providence, Rhode Island. "New wave," in this instance, has more to do with The Cars, as one terrific example, and less to do with what 1980s/MTV kids call "new wave." Rubber Rodeo was quite good and it had a hit single, "The Hardest Thing."

SUSS takes the ambient country/western idea to completion. I have only heard "Ghost Box: Expanded." "Salt" is one of my favorite tracks.
