Parallelogram

A loose, collaborative exchange of covers and sprawling originals. Banjo-led folk meets lysergic guitar jams in a warm, back-porch studio setting.

It's like sitting in on a private jam session between two of the best guitarists alive in a cabin in the woods.

A warm, dusty collection of musical handshakes that feels both intimate and expansive.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the skeletal banjo plucking of Red Apples into the brief, dissonant static of NPR Reject.
Steve Gunn's electric guitar flourishes on Pretty Boy that weave through Vile's deadpan delivery like silver thread.
The ten-minute hypnotic drift of Spring Garden where Mary Lattimore's harp creates a shimmering, liquid backdrop for the guitars.
