When an indie band employs banjo, xylophone, harmonium and glockenspiel, one expects its recording process to be just as eccentric; DIY studios on abandoned burial grounds or creaky, ambient old houses come to mind. But for Freelance Whales, that supernatural power doesn’t come from a contrived location, but instead grows out of a gothic love story. Concept album Weathervane, the band’s debut release, explores a boy’s romantic fantasies about the ghostly woman who haunts his family home. Years of rehearsing in unusual places—city streets, subway platforms, and geriatric wards—have enabled Freelance Whales to transfer their vagabond minstrelsy to record, heightening the dreamy, atmospheric quality of Weathervane’s songs without relying on an exotic location.

Artist: Lapland
Album: Lapland
Release date: March 26, 2013
Record label: Hundred Pockets Records

About: 
The beginning of Lapland started before it even had a name. It was born in a tiny half-bedroom in Brooklyn, where songwriter Josh Mease began recording a new batch of songs in early 2011. Mease has always found comfort in the solitude of his own thoughts, often preferring the landscapes within his mind’s eye over the bustle of the city that surrounds him. So it seems fitting that in making Lapland’s self-titled debut, he worked alone using whatever was within reach – only rarely using other musicians.

Perhaps this self-imposed isolation is why Lapland has such an introspective tone. Themes of separation and loss are woven throughout the album, as Lapland moves fluently through different styles and genres while maintaining a uniquely personal sound.  From the percolating electronic gallop of the opening track, “Unwise”, to the blue-eyed soul of “Aeroplane”, to the acoustic haze and layered harmonies of “Overboard”, Mease always keeps things interesting.  One can hear the effect of the myriad of music styles and genres that informed Lapland – Early synth pioneers of the 60′s and 70′s, French Impressionists like Ravel and Debussy, and 1970′s staples like Fleetwood Mac.

Mixing styles is not new for Mease. He grew up in Texas where his childhood love of rock and country evolved into studying jazz guitar. After moving to New York, he eventually shifted his focus from playing jazz to singing and writing songs. This transformation gives Mease a unique approach to songwriting, and his work has earned him fans not only in indie circles but also in jazz, R&B, and classical music as well.

The name Lapland only presented itself after the album was completed, when Mease picked up a book from the $2 stacks at a used bookstore called “Lappland Wanderland.” The book contained photos of other-worldly landscapes and vast open spaces which seemed to connect with Mease’s new recording. It was not a difficult decision to adopt the name Lapland for this new phase of Mease’s career. The scope of his work deserves a moniker of symbolic significance. And so, Lapland began.
