Baby Mountain at Trinity

01 Singing to You

Baby Mountain is a diminutive Chicago-based ensemble that takes it’s cue (and name) from a mysterious woman who says very little while tilting towards the center of things.

At one time there was a group called "The Lowly Ensemble" (see https://timlowly.bandcamp.com ).  As that band dissolved Tim Lowly and Karima Walker (https://soundcloud.com/karimanorma) did a tour together and Baby Mountain slowly came in to being.  Soon after Katie Cooper joined Baby Mountain and over the course of the following year the trio played numerous concerts.  Alas, Karima and Katie were soon to move to other parts of the world so Baby Mountain spent three days recording with Neil Strauch at Engine Studios in Chicago in the dead of the winter of 2012 .  Those recordings formed a base that would be substantially expanded and edited over the next few years.  Following are the list of participants / contributors:
Karima Walker - vocals and banjo
Katie Cooper - violin and vocals
Tim Lowly*** - vocals, guitar, bass, misc. other instruments, recording, mixing...
Maggie Hubbard*** - glockenspiel, bass, percussion
Christie Miller*** - clarinet
Ethan Adelsman - additional violin
Erica Elan Ciganek - additional glockenspiel
Ryan Hammer - additional bass
Ben Scott-Brandt - additional vocals

*** Current Baby Mountain.
