Chris Eckman - New Song “Early Snow”
posted at 04/09/2021
The fifth solo album from Chris Eckman (The Walkabouts, Dirtmusic, Distance, Light & Sky) is a deep dive into the vagaries of these extraordinary times. Eckman’s luminous songwriting navigates loss, disorientation, redemption and the search for home. Recorded raw and direct with a small ensemble, the record is framed by expansive sonic textures: treated strings, analogue synth drones and ambient guitars. Where the Spirit Rests was co-produced with British electronic composer Alastair McNeill (Roísín Murphy, Yila) and includes an inspired cast of collaborators: pedal steel maverick Chuck Johnson, avant-garde violinist Catherine Graindorge and Dream Syndicate/Green on Red keyboardist Chris Cacavas.
The lines of the album’s opening track and first single “Early Snow” vividly set up the record’s prevailing mood: “The snow came early / And stayed long / Deep into the spring / So much shock / Too little awe / Thought I’d seen everything / Didn’t count on the bitterness / Hit me unforeseen / Didn’t count on the revisionist / History written sloppily.”
Chris Eckman Where The Spirit Rests will be released June 4th via Glitterhouse Records. Pre-orders are online: https://linktr.ee/ChrisEckman
