Seven New Songs of Mount Eerie

Seven fragile, tape-saturated folk sketches recorded in isolation. Sparse acoustic guitars, hushed vocals, and warm room hiss create a deeply intimate winter shelter.

It sounds like a guy playing acoustic guitar in a cold cabin with a tape recorder running, and it's incredibly beautiful.

A quiet, winter-chilled solitude that finds comfort in tape hiss and simple acoustic strums.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the tape hiss swells and recedes like ocean waves on the opening track Wooly Mammoth’s Absence, framing the dry acoustic guitar.
The sudden, stark transition from the brief spoken-word fragment of Do Not Be Afraid into the fragile strumming of With My Hands Out.
The hypnotic, repetitive organ drone that anchors November 22nd 2003, 4:45 PM, creating a suspended sense of frozen time.
