Purchase 'I'll Be Around'

"Ellis Swan's other worldly reworked folk tales and murder ballads are unsettling, but incredibly seductive."

"...Swan’s LP is a decaying southern gothic world plucked straight from the mind of a displaced soul, a self-reflective odyssey that transports us into a long forgotten era. And it’s unlike anything else you’ll experience in music this year. "

"...exercises of arcane obscurity, occasionally flecked with poetic brilliance; Swan’s I’ll Be Around is a cohesive piece of work, one large tale composed of disparate strands."

<i>"Swan’s songs have patient movement: bass lines that crawl around in circles and fractured washes of texture. His weary, almost exhausted-sounding voice scrapes out a listener’s soul."</i>&#13;

<i>"...a Canadian artist living in Chicago, and gained some attention last year with his warped, nightmarish ballad Frankie and Charlie. In the bleary-eyed track ‘Evan Williams’, the twisted folk artist takes a more naturalistic route, but keeps that looming, leering edge to his music that makes it so striking."</i>&#13;
