silent city, 2009

silent
 

 
made with the collaborative help of bonnie 'prince' billy, 'silent city' is a mix of songs, instrumentals, and field recordings that are loosely centered around a small, rural town.

late at night, just before closing; sleepy, between awake and dreaming; old jukebox, conversation, laughter––and then, transformation.

as with 'american winter', samples were used from the berea college appalachian sound archives, and with their generous support and encouragement.

silent city will be available on atavistic records (USA) on august 11, and on ruminance records (europe) on september 28.
