Feel

The Shallows was recorded December 7th, 2013 in a practice space in Allston, MA.  When the band and I got back from a mini-tour at the end of November, I took a couple days off to demo some new songs and then re-recorded them the following Saturday.  I really wanted to have a more cohesive feeling this time around by recording everything in one day.  After a week or so of listening to and mixing the songs in a few different places like my favorite restaurant, my car, walking around my neighborhood, at work and at home, I sent them over to be mastered.

Available 3/25 via Disposable America on Light Blue Vinyl (200).

France Camp - Marisha

Hailing from Raleigh, North Carolina, Coast Starlight drifts somewhere between shoegaze haze and shimmering synth-driven rock. Their songs feel like late-night drives and half-remembered dreams—ambient, nostalgic, and effortlessly elevating. It’s the kind of music that lingers.

Widowspeak // The Dream

"More to Run" is taken from the Ocean Party's 7th album "Beauty Point" out August 18th via Spunk Records (AUS/NZ) & Emotional Response (US)

The Ocean Party - More To Run

From the self-titled debut by Lean Year.  Available October 20, 2017 on Western Vinyl

Lean Year is the debut, self-titled record by Richmond, Virginia based singer Emilie Rex and filmmaker/musician Rick Alverson. What for Rex was a departure from the structured life of academia toward the uncertain contours of a creative field, for Alverson was a return to form. Having released 5 albums with his previous band Spokane, Alverson took a 10-year hiatus from music to write and direct feature films. These departures and approaches bring a transience and listlessness to the album, like a walk interrupted by both curiosity and caution. 

Equally informed by the minimalist folk music of Elizabeth Cotton, Karen Dalton, and Fred Neil; the tenuous, ambient, and orchestral works of Harold Budd, Brian Eno, and John Cale; the quietly pointed but tender songs of Nina Simone and Bessie Smith; and the baroque pop subversions of Love and The Left Banke—the inspirations for Lean Year are as varied as Rex and Alverson’s biographies. Their childhoods—framed respectively by New-Age ideology and antiquated Catholic Catechism; anarchist Montessori and cold, cloistered ice arenas; the chaotic, upheaval of divorce and the strange, obligatory qualities of life-long marriage—provide footing on uneven ground for the record’s dream-like, oblique observations. In the wake of these dynamic histories, the two leaned on music as a kind of secular spirituality. 

Rex and Alverson co-wrote the album over the course of a year at their home in Richmond, VA and recorded it in three sessions at the home studio of Chicago musician/engineer Erik Hall (In Tall Buildings, NOMO), who also performs on the record. Alverson and Hall co-produced the album’s ten tracks, drawing on both Hall's and Elliot Bergman’s (NOMO) arsenal of instruments. For Hall and Rex, this project was a reunion of sorts, the two having met as undergraduates in Ann Arbor at the University of Michigan over a decade before. Hall’s extensive vocabulary—ranging from jazz and pop to rock and afrobeat—informs his contributions to the record.

Alverson’s films [Entertainment (2015) and the cult-drama The Comedy (2012)] have premiered at Sundance, Locarno, Rotterdam and the Film Society of Lincoln Center among others venues and festivals worldwide. Rex left academia and her position as Indiana University's Assistant Director of Sustainability in 2014 to focus on music and pursue resilience writing and analysis as a consultant. This is her first record.
